Talk:Airstrike

Merge with bomb
I don't know who made the article, but it could use a lot of expanding. As for merging it, no. "Bombs" are frequeintly used in Airstrikes, and why anyone would merge them is beyond me. There are too many different listed uses and methods of airstrikes to merge it with anything. Colonel Marksman 20:54, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
 * No merge. I would have to concur with the above opinion. Kuki ni 05:16, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
 * No merge. Airstrike and Bombing are two different concepts.--Neo-Jay 03:16, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
 * No merge. Two completely seperate tactics. JCPH 12:34, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

This article is partially covered by both Aerial interdiction and Tactical bombing. But to keep the discussion centralised, please see Talk:Ground attack aircraft as there are a number of different overlapping articles to do with the use of aircraft in a tactical ground attack role. --Philip Baird Shearer 11:30, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Merge?
I think that it would be appropriate for this article to be merged with Close Air Support, and leave a disambiguation link for the other definitions of the word "Airstrike"(eg. Air Raid) Wiki flight simmer (talk) 14:23, 10 December 2007 (UTC)Wiki_flight_simmer


 * In my opinion, a merge would be useless and pointless. WinterSpw (talk) 00:05, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

Airstrike vs. Air Strike
The page is titled "Airstrike", but refers the words "Air Strike" appear multiple times during the article. Which spelling should be used? FrigidNinja (talk) 19:19, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

"Collateral damage can be advantageous"
Am I being biased in thinking this is totally ridiculous? I wanted to remove it but I thought I would put the question here first. I suppose it can be 'advantageous' if you look at it from a sociopathic military perspective (not slamming military, I just believe ethic ought to have a part in military and this is counter to that), but that phrase seems outrageously spun to me.
