    I remember as a kid being like "uh, isn't it kind of dumb to base everything on airplanes, because what if you have to fight without them?" and being told I don't understand the intricacies of US military superiority

        US has not fought a war against a country that possessed a conventional airforce since WWII, they just take it for granted

          There was arguably Korea, Vietnam, and First Gulf. But the US performance in the first two was far from stellar and the last one was against a badly out of date and undertrained opponent.
