The main focus will be on the operational contributions the RAAF made to the Allied Southwest Pacific Area campaign in the Netherlands East Indies, New Guinea, and in Northern Australia. Finally, the project will show how the lessons horn experiencing Japanese air superiority, early in WWII, influenced the doctrine, strategy, command organization and force structure of today’s modern RAAF
