Operation Rolling Thunder aimed to achieve several key objectives during the Vietnam War. Primarily, it sought to weaken North Vietnam's industrial and logistical capabilities through sustained bombing campaigns, thereby disrupting the supply lines supporting the Viet Cong insurgency in South Vietnam. Additionally, the operation aimed to boost the morale of South Vietnamese forces and deter North Vietnam from continuing its military aggression. Ultimately, it was intended to compel North Vietnam to negotiate a settlement favorable to U.S. interests.
