The theory of Airpower Geopolitical Space is a hybrid concept based on understanding the influential realities of Airpower. It is based on the behavior of actors, decision makers and political rulers who have geopolitical interests in geopolitical space. The theory examines the interrelationships of Airpower in geopolitical space with power actions and geopolitical competitions that arise and emerge in the form of territoriality, territorial expansion, empowerment and superiority in various fields. Since Airpower exploits complex technologies, as technologies progress, it plays a different role and is influential in the behavior pattern of actors in the form of competition, confrontation, or interaction. It will play a decisive role, facilitating the attention of rulers to this area of competition or their confrontation with competitors.
In this theory which is inspired by Robert Dubin's methodology, the main theory assumption and the subject are presented as the theory of theorizing at first, then the theory of explanation is discussed based on five steps (explanation of units, manner and relationships of units, the scope of the theory determination, the system explanation, and propositions theory).
The theory is descriptive and prescriptive because the provisions and content of phenomena report and the relations between them are in the two areas of Airpower and geopolitics. Given that, causal and disability relations are related to the described phenomenon recommendation. The resulting theory consists of one supporting part, three main parts and 12 judgments or theorems.
