Résumé

The Tactical Leadership Programme (TLP), founded in 1978, is one of Europe’s longest-running military training programs, focused on improving the tactical leadership and flying capability of NATO air forces. Its primary goal is to enhance interoperability between NATO members and provide a flying laboratory for new tactical employment concepts. With ten founding member countries—Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States—the TLP has trained thousands of pilots from various European and North American air forces.

Over the decades, it has adapted to four technological generations of aircraft, training pilots during the Cold War, the post-Berlin Wall era, and through the rise of global terrorism. The book covers the history of the TLP, detailing its training syllabus, course rigor, and evolving air bases. It also features interviews with commanding officers, highlighting the importance of skilled commanders for leading multinational air formations.

Veteran non-commissioned officers discuss the coordination of diverse teams across languages and cultures.
