Army aviation refers to that part of the CDF Air Service assets under the operation control of the CDF Land Service. The Community Defence Forces raise one Army Air Corps for every wave of one hundred million population in Sober Thought.
Each corps serves under the operational command of the field army of the Land Service. This corps has a slightly different mix of squadrons than is typical of real world army air corps because unite all environments. Thus, airlift and fixed-wing close support squadrons are included as well.
