Implications for the Air Force
Expert InsightsPublished Feb 2, 2015
One of a series of RAND Perspectives on what the Middle East and U.S. policy might look like in "the days after a deal" with Iran, this Perspective examines the choices the United States will confront in its policies toward Iran and its regional partners in the event that a final nuclear agreement is reached between Iran and the United States, Britain, France, Russia, China, and Germany (the P5+1); specifically, it focuses on the choices that will need to be made regarding U.S. military posture and activities in the Middle East, with a focus on the U.S. Air Force.
This Perspective results from work conducted within RAND Project AIR FORCE (PAF), the U.S. Air Force's federally funded research and development center for studies and analyses.
