#3 The Air Force has been casting about for new missions for some time and the Cyber Command appears to be one. They have been talking about this for at least a year. The academy graduate fighter pilot generals who constitute the bulk of AF leadership are frustrated by a lack of credible opponents to justify buying enough F-22s to keep the fighter pilots happy. The AF started shrinking when the Berlin Wall went down and is still shrinking. PBD 723 is causing pain throughout the force. The rise of armed UAVs is exacerbating their pain.
Why spend millions of dollars to train a fighter pilot when you can get the same results from sergeant sitting at a game console flying an armed UAV half a world away?
