The inaugural edition of the AirSpace Journal launching at the Dubai International Air Chiefs Conference builds on a strong legacy to address the broader and rapidly changing dynamics of air and space power. Our first issue, themed “Hypersonic Horizons: Shaping Airpower in an Asymmetric World,” will explore how hypersonic technologies are transforming the strategic and operational landscape. The edition will examine the convergence of hypersonics with AI, unmanned systems, and space capabilities—redefining how air forces operate in an era of increasing asymmetry and instability.
