The Asgarnian Air Force is the branch of the Asgarnian Armed Forces that is responsible for aerial warfare. It is also known as the AAF. It was created in 1947 by the then Emperor of Asgarnieu.

The Asgarnian Air Force is one of the largest brances in the AAFCOM, and is one of the largest air forces in the world. It is technologically advanced, and operates some of the world's most superior aircraft.

Strength

There are currently just over 24,646,809 soldiers serving in the AAF.

Airspace

The Asgarnian Air Force's airspace command extends around Asgarnieu and its territorial waters. Protectorates, colonies, and claims are also included in the airspace. Due to the expansive area that needs patrolling, regional air commands use real-time AS-9 satellite coverage to watch areas that aircraft are not currently patrolling.

Administrative Organization of the AAF

There are several divisions of the AAF. Each has its own specific role in the order of battle.
