  • Haywood Shepherd Hansell Jr. (September 28, 1903 – November 14, 1988) was a general officer in the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) during World War II, and later the United States Air Force. He became an advocate of the doctrine of strategic bombardment, and was one of the chief architects of the concept of daylight precision bombing that governed the use of airpower by the USAAF in the war. Hansell played a key and largely unsung role in the strategic planning of air operations by the United States. This included drafting both the strategic air war plans (AWPD-1 and AWPD-42) and the plan for the Combined Bomber Offensive in Europe; obtaining a base of operations for the B-29 Superfortress in the Mariana Islands; and devising the command structure of the Twentieth Air Force, the first global strategic air force and forerunner of the Strategic Air Command. He made precision air attack, as both the most humane and effective means of achieving military success, a lifelong personal crusade that eventually became the key tenet of American airpower employment. Unfortunately, his air bombardment campaign over Japan proved to be a failure due to various elements, such as the interference of a powerful and consistent jet stream in that nation's airspace. He was replaced by General Curtis LeMay, who reoriented his air forces' tactics in reverse of Hansell's methods for an extremely destructive nighttime area fire bombing campaign over Japan. Hansell also held combat commands during the war, carrying out the very plans and doctrines he helped draft. He pioneered strategic bombardment of both Germany and Japan, as commander of the first B-17 Flying Fortress combat wing in Europe, and as the first commander of the B-29 force in the Marianas. (en)
  • Haywood Shepherd Hansell, Jr., né le 28 septembre 1903 à Fort Monroe et mort le 14 novembre 1988 sur l'île de Hilton-Head, est un officier de l'United States Army Air Forces au cours de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, puis par la suite de l'United States Air Force. Promoteur de la doctrine du bombardement stratégique, il est l'un des principaux architectes du plan de bombardements de précision de jour qui a régi l'utilisation de la puissance aérienne par l'USAAF pendant la guerre. Hansell joue un rôle clé et largement méconnu dans la planification stratégique des opérations aériennes des États-Unis. Cela comprend la rédaction de deux plans de guerre de l'air stratégiques (AWPD-1 et AWPD-42, du nom de l’ (en), une organisation militaire américaine qui a conçu plusieurs plans à long terme) et le plan de l'offensive de bombardement combinée en Europe, l'obtention d'une base d'opérations pour le Boeing B-29 Superfortress dans les îles Mariannes et l'élaboration de la structure de commandement de la 20th USAAF (la première force aérienne stratégique mondiale et la précurseure du Strategic Air Command). Il se trouva en opposition avec les objectifs de l'État-major quand il s'agit de mettre en place la technique du carpet bombing (tapis de bombes) qui ne faisait pas la différence dans les objectifs (militaires, civils, économiques, etc.) comme appliqué en Europe au-dessus de l'Allemagne. En désaccord, il dut céder sa place au général Curtiss Lemay. (fr)

  • Haywood Shepherd Hansell Jr. (28 de Setembro de 1903 – 14 de Novembro de 1988) foi oficial general das Forças Aéreas do Exército dos Estados Unidos (USAAF) durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial e, posteriormente, da Força Aérea dos Estados Unidos. Ele se tornou um defensor da doutrina do bombardeio estratégico e foi um dos principais arquitetos do conceito de bombardeio de precisão à luz do dia que governou o uso do poder aéreo pela USAAF na guerra. Hansell desempenhou um papel-chave e em grande parte desconhecido no planejamento estratégico das operações aéreas dos Estados Unidos. Isso incluiu a elaboração dos planos de guerra aérea estratégica (AWPD-1 e AWPD-42) e o plano da Ofensiva de Bombardeiro Combinada na Europa; obtenção de base de operações da Superfortaleza B-29 nas Ilhas Marianas; e conceber a estrutura de comando da Vigésima Força Aérea, a primeira força aérea estratégica global e precursora do Comando Aéreo Estratégico. Ele fez um ataque aéreo de precisão, tanto como o meio mais humano e eficaz de alcançar o sucesso militar, uma cruzada pessoal vitalícia que acabou se tornando o princípio fundamental do emprego do poder aéreo americano. Hansell também exerceu comandos de combate durante a guerra, executando os próprios planos e doutrinas que ajudou a elaborar. Ele foi pioneiro no bombardeio estratégico da Alemanha e do Japão, como comandante da primeira ala de combate da Fortaleza Voadora B-17 na Europa e como o primeiro comandante da força B-29 nas Marianas.

  • Хейвуд Шеперд Ханселл младший (англ. Haywood Shepherd Hansell Jr.; 28 сентября 1903 — 14 ноября 1988) — генерал ВВС США во время Второй мировой войны. Сторонник доктрины стратегической бомбардировки. Был одним из главных архитекторов концепции высокоточных бомбардировок, которая определила использование авиации ВВС США в войне. Ханселл сыграл ключевую роль в стратегическом планировании воздушных операций США. Это включало разработку как стратегических планов воздушной войны (AWPD-1 и AWPD-42), так и плана массированных налетов на промышленные объекты Германии и создание базы для боевых действий B-29 Superfortress на Марианских островах. Разработал структуру командования 20-й воздушной армии и первых глобальных стратегических военно-воздушных сил, ставшего предшественником Стратегического авиационного командования. Считал высокоточные бомбардировки наиболее гуманным и эффективным средством достижения военного успеха и посвятил свою жизнь внедрению этой стратегии, которая в конечном итоге стала ключевым принципом использования американской авиации. Его план бомбардировок Японии сорвался из-за различных неучтенных факторов, таких как высотное струйное течение в этом регионе. Был заменен на генерала Кертиса Лемея, сторонника . Был зачинателем стратегических бомбардировок как Германии, в качестве командир первого крыла B-17 Flying Fortress в Европе, так и Японии, как первый командующий силами B-29 на Марианских островах.

  • "It is far beyond my ability to adequately describe the frustrations, disappointments, fragile hopes, determination, and soaring zeal that were mixed in the cauldron to make AWPD-1 and the plans modifying it. The frantic efforts to meet deadlines, the disagreements, the uphill fight against entrenched and hostile opinion, the dedicated crusade for the new role of air power, the slumbering dread that we might be wrong—that we might persuade our leaders to take a path that would lead to disaster—put a heavy burden on all of us."
