Gulf War Air Campaign Map to be Featured in New Smithsonian Exhibit

A pivotal map used in the planning of Operation Desert Storm during the Gulf War will be displayed at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum. This map, one of two created by now-retired Lt. Gen. David Deptula, the principal air attack planner for Operation Desert Storm, will be part of the museum’s new 'Modern Military Aviation' gallery in Washington, D.C. The exhibit, scheduled to open on Veterans Day, November 11, 2026, aims to showcase advances in airpower from the Korean War to the present. The map was instrumental in identifying strategic targets across Iraq in the fall of 1990, helping planners visualize relationships between targets, coordinate force packages, and identify gaps in Iraqi defenses. Due to its fragility and size, a reproduction of the map will be displayed as a large-format graphic panel.
