These references relate to air warfare issues within the defence policy and posture of the United Kingdom that provide context to understanding development and implementation of defence and security policies that relate to chemical and biological warfare. Without understanding the general, it is not possible to understand the specific.
As the collections were put together by researchers focused on chemical and biological warfare issues, these background/context files are not likely to be comprehensive.
