Bombardment Group
A "Bombardment Group" is a military unit primarily responsible for conducting aerial bombing missions. These groups are typically part of an air force and consist of several squadrons equipped with bombers. Their main objective is to target enemy infrastructure, supply lines, and military installations to weaken the opponent's capabilities.
During World War II, many Bombardment Groups played crucial roles in strategic bombing campaigns. Notable examples include the 8th Air Force in the United States, which conducted extensive bombing raids over Europe. These operations aimed to disrupt enemy operations and support ground forces during the conflict.
