Brief History

The Allied States Air Force grew quickly after its formation. It soon encompassed all forms of air warfare such as aerial reconaissance, air superiority and ground attack missions. The Allied States Air Force played a key role in determining the outcome of the Meditterranean Conflicts as well as the Allied States Civil War. The Air Force R&D department was responsible for the development of ASLCAF.net battle-network, which is now AFAS.net and in version 4.5.1. The Air Force was originally responsible for space development, but that department has since become the Orbital Command.

In combat, the Air Force has distinguished itself several times. The Air Force was key in supporting both naval aviation and ground combat in the Meditteranean Conflicts, both in securing air superiority and providing strong ground combat assistance.
