Coalition forces quickly established air superiority, and a thorough air campaign was waged. The coalition ground campaign drove Iraqi military forces out of Kuwait in less than 100 hours. The war was a decisive coalition victory. Saddam Hussein remained in power and Iraq remained a sovereign state. A noteable battle of the war was the Battle of 73 Easting between a U.S. Army armored cavalry regiment and the Tawakalna Division of Iraqi Republican Guard. The war marks the last time that battleship guns fired in anger.
