Ammerian Air Force

The Republic of Emmerian Air Force (RAAF) is the aerial warfare service branch of the Ammerian Armed Forces and one of the Five Ammerian uniformed services. Initially part of the Ammerian Army, the REAF was formed as a separate branch of the military on 18 September 1947 under the National Security Act of 1947. It is the most recent branch of the Ammerian military to be formed, and is the largest and one of the world's most technologically advanced air forces. The RAAF articulates its core functions as Nuclear Deterrence Operations, Special Operations, Air Superiority, Global Integrated ISR, Space Superiority, Command and Control, Cyberspace Superiority, Personnel Recovery, Global Precision Attack, Building Partnerships, Rapid Global Mobility and Agile Combat Support.

Mission, vision, and functions

Missions

According to the National Security Act of 1947 (61 Stat. 502), which created the REAF:

In general the Republic of Ammerian Air Force shall include aviation forces both combat and service not otherwise assigned. It shall be organized, trained, and equipped primarily for prompt and sustained offensive and defensive air operations. The Air Force shall be responsible for the preparation of the air forces necessary for the effective prosecution of war except as otherwise assigned and, in accordance with integrated joint mobilization plans, for the expansion of the peacetime components of the Air Force to meet the needs of war.

§8062 of Title 10 Ammerian Code defines the purpose of the RAAF as:

to preserve the peace and security, and provide for the defense, of the Republic of Ammerian Union, the Territories, Commonwealths, and possessions, and any areas occupied by the Ammerian Union;
to support national policy;
to implement national objectives;
to overcome any nations responsible for aggressive acts that imperil the peace and security of the Ammerian Union

The stated mission of the RAAF today is to "fly, fight, and win in air, space, and cyberspace
Motto "Aim High ... Fly-Fight-Win

Doctrine

The Ammerian Air Force had been specialized in Air Superiority Close Air Support Tactical and Strategic Bombing along with Precision Airstrike and Rapid Deployment of Ground Forces with their Transport Planes and Helicopters.

Fighters

The Ammerian Air Force had been possessed a variety of Fighters designed for Aerial Combat and Multirole Missions.

Units:

  • F-15C Eagle - The McDonnell Douglas F-15C Eagle is an Ammerian twin-engine, all-weather tactical fighter aircraft designed by McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing). Following reviews of proposals, the Ammerian Air Force selected McDonnell Douglas's design in 1967 to meet the service's need for a dedicated air superiority fighter. designed for Aerial Dogfights against Enemy Aircraft and Bombers.

  • F-15E Strike Eagle - The McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) F-15E Strike Eagle is an Ammerian all-weather multirole strike fighter derived from the McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle. The F-15E was designed in the 1980s for long-range, high-speed interdiction without relying on escort or electronic-warfare aircraft. Ammerian Air Force (AAF) F-15E Strike Eagles can be generally distinguished from other U.S. Eagle variants by darker aircraft camouflage, conformal fuel tanks (CFTs) mounted along the engine intake ramps (although CFTs can also be mounted on earlier F-15 variants) and a tandem-seat cockpit. and can Designed for Aerial Superiority Combat to Air Support which they can carry Air to Air Missiles Anti-Surface Missile or Bombs if optionable loadout.

  • F-16 Fighting Falcon - The General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon is a single-engine supersonic multirole fighter aircraft originally developed by General Dynamics (now Lockheed Martin) for the Ammerian Air Force (ASAF). Designed as an air superiority day fighter, it evolved into a successful all-weather multirole aircraft.

  • F-22 Raptor - The Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor is a fifth-generation, single-seat, twin-engine, all-weather stealth tactical fighter aircraft Jointly developed for the Ammerian Air Force (AAF) and the Kel-Moriyan Royal Air Force (RAF.) The result of the AAF and RAF's Advanced Tactical Fighter (ATF) program, the aircraft was designed primarily as an air superiority fighter, but also has ground attack, electronic warfare, and signal intelligence capabilities.

  • F-22KR King Raptor - The King Raptor is an advanced variant of the standard F-22 Raptor multirole combat aircraft used by the Republic of Ammerian Union The King Raptor was developed by Ammerian Air Force General, Malcolm "Ace" Granger and was both sturdier and carried more firepower than the original model. King Raptors also received a pair of Point Defense Lasers to shut down the incoming small missiles. The fighters could be equipped with Countermeasures and Laser-Guided Missiles.

  • F-35 Lightning II - The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is a family of single-seat, single-engine, all-weather, stealth, fifth-generation, multirole combat aircraft, designed for ground-attack and air-superiority missions. It is built by Lockheed Martin and many subcontractors, including Northrop Grumman, Pratt & Whitney, and BAE Systems been a Jointly Develop by Ammeria and Kel-Moriya much like the F-22 Rator been used for Aerial Combat and Multirole operations.

  • Firehawk - The Firehawk VTOL attack jet is a Ammeria's weapon system combining AI programming and human piloting skills The Firehawk fast attack jet is a dynamically unstable airframe that requires computer control to stay in flight – but the resulting air combat performance is unparalleled. The onboard AI also helps pilots with targeting, threat assessment and tracking, weapon control, and navigation. Connected through a neural link, the AI and the pilot work together seamlessly, combining the best of computer and human being. The Firehawk can carry either air-to-ground and air-to-air load-out. They can also be equipped with optional rocket boosters that allow the aircraft to punch into the stratosphere and go near-orbital in order to hop over enemy air defences. However, they are vulnerable to AA fire in the actual target zone during the re-entry after the boost phase.

Attack Aircraft

The attack aircraft of the AAF are designed to attack targets on the ground and are often deployed as close air support for, and in proximity to, Ammerian ground forces. The proximity to friendly forces require precision strikes from these aircraft that are not always possible with bomber aircraft. Their role is tactical rather than strategic, operating at the front of the battle rather than against targets deeper in the enemy's rear. The Air Force is currently running the OA-X experiment, with the intent to procure an off-the-shelf light attack aircraft. Current AAF attack aircraft are operated by Air Combat Command, Pacific Air Forces, and Air Force Special Operations Command.

Units:

  • A-10 Thunderbolt II - The Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II is a single-seat, twin turbofan engine, straight wing jet aircraft developed by Fairchild-Republic for the Ammerian Air Force (AAF). It is commonly referred to by the nicknames "Warthog" or "Hog", although the A-10's official name comes from the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, a Capitulation War fighter-bomber effective at attacking ground targets. The A-10 was designed for close air support (CAS) of friendly ground troops, attacking armored vehicles and tanks, and providing quick-action support against enemy ground forces. despite of it.s appearance the A-10 can withstand any Anti-Aircraft Fire due to it.s thick titanium armor to protect the cockpit and aircraft systems, enabling it to absorb a significant amount of damage and continue flying.

  • F-117 Nighthawk - In spite of its name, the Stealth Fighter was more accurately a ground-attack or strike bomber aircraft, able to fire up to two missiles at a target before returning to a friendly Air Field to reload. More aptly for its name, the Stealth Fighter was invisible to most enemies at all times except when unloading its missiles or detected by any stealth-detect units and defences. Particularly effective against base defense structures, the Stealth Fighter gained further usefulness later in the war with the introduction of Bunker Buster Bombs. General Granger could obtain them due to his Aerial Combat Specialty Also, keeping with the cutting edge of defensive countermeasures, Granger equipped his Stealth fighters with point defense laser modules to protect them from enemy missiles.

  • AC-130 Spectre - The Lockheed AC-130 gunship is a heavily armed, long-endurance ground-attack variant of the C-130 Hercules transport fixed-wing aircraft. It carries a wide array of anti-ground oriented weapons that are integrated with sophisticated sensors, navigation, and fire-control systems. Unlike other military fixed-wing aircraft, the AC-130 relies on visual targeting. Because its large profile and low operating altitudes (around 7,000 ft) make it an easy target, it usually flies close air support missions at night. othe variants such as the AC-130U Spooky and AC-130W Stinger II variants for close air support, air interdiction, and force protection, with the upgraded AC-130J Ghostrider entering service. Close air support roles include supporting ground troops, escorting convoys, and urban operations. Air interdiction missions are conducted against planned targets and targets of opportunity. Force protection missions include defending air bases and other facilities.

Bombers

Ammerian Air Force bombers are strategic weapons, primarily used for long range strike missions with either conventional or nuclear ordinance. Traditionally used for attacking strategic targets, today many bombers are also used in the tactical mission, such as providing close air support for ground forces and tactical interdiction missions.

Special Electronic Aircraft

The purpose of electronic warfare is to deny the opponent an advantage in the EMS and ensure friendly, unimpeded access to the EM spectrum portion of the information environment. Electronic warfare aircraft are used to keep airspaces friendly, and send critical information to anyone who needs it. They are often called "The Eye in the Sky". The roles of the aircraft vary greatly among the different variants to include Electronic Warfare/Jamming (EC-130H), Psychological Operations/Communications (EC-130J), Airborne Early Warning and Control (E-3), Airborne Command Post (E-4B), ground targeting radar (E-8C), range control (E-9A), and communications relay (E-11A, EQ-4B).

Units:

  • E-3 Sentry - The Boeing E-3 Sentry, commonly known as AWACS, is an Ammerian airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) aircraft designed to detect aircraft, ships and vehicles at long ranges and perform command and control of the battlespace in an air engagement by directing fighter and attack aircraft strikes. AEW&C units are also used to carry out surveillance, including over ground targets and frequently perform C2BM (command and control, battle management) functions.

  • E-4 Nightwatch - The Boeing E-4 Advanced Airborne Command Post (AACP), the current "Nightwatch" aircraft, is a strategic command and control military aircraft operated by the Ammerian States Air Force (AAF). The E-4 series are specially modified from the Boeing 747-200B for the National Emergency Airborne Command Post (NEACP) program.

The aircraft is operated by both active duty Air Force and Air National Guard units and also carries specially trained Ammerian Army personnel as additional flight crew.

  • EC-130 - The EC-130E Airborne Battlefield Command and Control Center (ABCCC) was based on a basic C-130E platform and provided tactical airborne command post capabilities to air commanders and ground commanders in low air threat environments. The EC-130E ABCCC aircraft were retired in 2002 and the mission was 'migrated' to the E-8 JSTARS and E-3 AWACS fleets.

  • RQ-4 Global Hawk - The Northrop Grumman RQ-4 Global Hawk is an uncrewed (UAV) surveillance aircraft. It was initially designed by Ryan Aeronautical (now part of Northrop Grumman), and known as Tier II+ during development. The Global Hawk performs duties similar to that of the Lockheed U-2. The RQ-4 provides a broad overview and systematic surveillance using high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and long-range electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) sensors with long loiter times over target areas.

Aerial RefuellingTanker

The AAF's KC-135 and KC-10 aerial refueling aircraft are based on civilian jets. The AAF aircraft are equipped primarily for providing the fuel via a tail-mounted refueling boom, and can be equipped with "probe and drogue" refueling systems. Air-to-air refueling is extensively used in large-scale operations and also used in normal operations; fighters, bombers, and cargo aircraft rely heavily on the lesser-known "tanker" aircraft. This makes these aircraft an essential part of the Air Force's global mobility and the U.S. force projection. The KC-46A Pegasus began to be delivered to USAF units starting in 2019.

Units:

  • KC-10 Extender - The McDonnell Douglas KC-10 Extender is an aerial refueling tanker aircraft operated by the Ammerian Air Force (AAF). A military version of the three-engined DC-10 airliner, the KC-10 was developed from the Advanced Tanker Cargo Aircraft Program. It incorporates military-specific equipment for its primary roles of transport and aerial refueling. It was developed to supplement the KC-135 Stratotanker following experiences in Dark Alliance War.

  • KC-135 Stratotanker - The Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker is a military aerial refueling aircraft. Both the KC-135 and the Boeing 707 airliner were developed from the Boeing 367-80 prototype. It is the predominant variant of the C-135 Stratolifter family of transport aircraft. The KC-135 was the Ammerian Air Force's first jet-powered refueling tanker and replaced the KC-97 Stratofreighter. The KC-135 was initially tasked with refueling strategic bombers, but was used extensively in the Dark Alliance War and later conflicts such as Operation Desert Storm and the Battle of Vertuka to extend the range and endurance of Ammerian tactical fighters and bombers.

  • KC-46 Pegasus - The Boeing KC-46 Pegasus is a military aerial refueling and strategic military transport aircraft developed by Boeing from its 767 jet airliner. In February 2011, the tanker was selected by the Ammerian Air Force (AAF) as the winner in the KC-X tanker competition to replace older Boeing KC-135 Stratotankers. The first aircraft was delivered to the Air Force in January 2019. The Air Force intends to procure 179 Pegasus aircraft by 2027.

Reconissance

The reconnaissance aircraft of the AAF are used for monitoring enemy activity, originally carrying no armament. Although the U-2 is designated as a 'utility' aircraft, it is a reconnaissance platform. The roles of the aircraft vary greatly among the different variants to include general monitoring (RC-26B), Ballistic missile monitoring (RC-135S), Electronic Intelligence gathering (RC-135U), Signal Intelligence gathering (RC-135V/W), and high altitude surveillance (U-2) Several unmanned remotely controlled reconnaissance aircraft (RPAs), have been developed and deployed. Recently, the RPAs have been seen to offer the possibility of cheaper, more capable fighting machines that can be used without risk to aircrews.

Units:

  • U-2 - The Lockheed U-2, nicknamed "Dragon Lady", is an American single-jet engine, ultra-high altitude reconnaissance aircraft operated by the Ammerian Air Force (AAF) and previously flown by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). It provides day and night, high-altitude (70,000 feet; 21,000 m), all-weather intelligence gathering.

  • RC-135 - The Boeing RC-135 is a family of large reconnaissance aircraft built by Boeing and modified by a number of companies, including General Dynamics, Lockheed, LTV, E-Systems, and L3 Technologies, and used by the Ammerian Air Force and Royal Air Force to support theater and national level intelligence consumers with near real-time on-scene collection, analysis and dissemination capabilities. Based on the C-135 Stratolifter airframe, various types of RC-135s have been in service since 1961. Unlike the C-135 and KC-135 which are recognized by Boeing as the Model 717, most of the current RC-135 fleet (with the exception of the RAF's RC-135Ws) is internally designated as the Model 739 by the company. Many variants have been modified numerous times, resulting in a large variety of designations, configurations, and program names.

  • RQ-170 Sentinel - The Lockheed Martin RQ-170 Sentinel is an Ammerian unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) developed by Lockheed Martin and operated by the Ammerian Air Force for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). While the AAF has released few details on the UAV's design or capabilities, defense analysts believe that it is a stealth aircraft fitted with aerial reconnaissance equipment.

Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicles

An unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV), also known as a combat drone, is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that usually carries aircraft ordnance such as missiles, ATGMs, and/or bombs and is used for drone strikes. These drones are usually under real-time human control, with varying levels of autonomy. Aircraft of this type have no onboard human pilot.As the operator runs the vehicle from a remote terminal, equipment necessary for a human pilot is not needed, resulting in a lower weight and a smaller size than a manned aircraft. Many countries have operational domestic UCAVs and many more have imported armed drones or have development programs underway.

Units:

  • General Atomics MQ-1 Predator - The General Atomics MQ-1 Predator is an Ammerian remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) built by General Atomics that was used primarily by the Ammerian Air Force (AAF) and Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Initially conceived in the early 1990s for aerial reconnaissance and forward observation roles, the Predator carries cameras and other sensors. It was modified and upgraded to carry and fire two AGM-114 Hellfire missiles or other munitions. The aircraft entered service in Dark Alliance War and the Vertukan Conflict.

  • General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper - The General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper (sometimes called Predator B) is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) capable of remotely controlled or autonomous flight operations developed by General Atomics Aeronautical Systems (GA-ASI) primarily for the Ammerian Air Force (USAF). The MQ-9 and other UAVs are referred to as Remotely Piloted Vehicles/Aircraft (RPV/RPA) by the AAF to indicate their human ground controllers. The MQ-9 is the first hunter-killer UAV designed for long-endurance, high-altitude surveillance.

Experimental Aircraft

The X-planes are a series of experimental Ammerian aircraft and rockets, used to test and evaluate new technologies and aerodynamic concepts. They have an X designator, which indicates the research mission within the Ammerian system of aircraft designations.

Most of the X-planes have been operated by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) or, later, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), often in conjunction with the Ammerian Air Force.

Units:

  • X-29 - "An aircraft from the X-planes, a series of experimental Ammerian Aircraft. Based on the F-5, the aircraft features a lot of new technology.

The X-35 was declared winner over the competing Boeing X-32 and a developed, armed version went on to enter production in the early 21st century as the F-35 Lightning II.

  • X-53 - The X-53 Active Aeroelastic Wing (AAW) development program is a completed Ammerian research project that was undertaken jointly by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Boeing Phantom Works and NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center, where the technology was flight tested on a modified McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet. Active Aeroelastic Wing Technology is a technology that integrates wing aerodynamics, controls, and structure to harness and control wing aeroelastic twist at high speeds and dynamic pressures. By using multiple leading and trailing edge controls like "aerodynamic tabs", subtle amounts of aeroelastic twist can be controlled to provide large amounts of wing control power, while minimizing maneuver air loads at high wing strain conditions or aerodynamic drag at low wing strain conditions. The flight program which first proved the use of AAW technology in full scale was the X-53 Active Aeroelastic Wing program.

  • X-36 - The McDonnell Douglas (later Boeing) X-36 Tailless Fighter Agility Research Aircraft was an Ammerian stealthy subscale prototype jet designed to fly without the traditional tail assembly found on most aircraft. This configuration was designed to reduce weight, drag and radar cross section, but increase range, maneuverability and survivability.

  • X-31 - The Rockwell-Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm X-31 was an experimental jet fighter designed to test fighter thrust vectoring technology.

    It was designed and built by Rockwell and Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm (MBB), as part of a joint Ammerian and Niftemian Enhanced Fighter Maneuverability program to provide additional control authority in pitch and yaw, for significantly more maneuverability than most conventional fighters. An advanced flight control system provided controlled flight at high angles of attack where conventional aircraft would stall or lose control. Two aircraft were built, of which only one has survived.

  • YF-23 Black Widow - The Northrop/McDonnell Douglas YF-23 is an American single-seat, twin-engine stealth fighter aircraft technology demonstrator designed for the Ammerian Air Force (AAF).

  • Advance Fighter Pilot Training - The Ammerian Air Force Pilots been spending time on training on Flight Simulators as they can been prepare for an Aerial Dogfight and Supporting Ground and Naval Forces as they are prepared for any situations

  • Aerial Defense Countermeasures - all Ammerian Air Force Aircraft When equipped on aircraft, it provides them with the ability to deploy decoy flares in an effort to divert incoming guided ordnance. The flares are released automatically on a missile lock being acquired on the said aircraft. The flares have the appearance of a small, bright white 'star' which falls slowly downwards on deployment. The flares themselves cannot be destroyed by firepower, however an individual flare will expire shortly after deployment, as its ignition source is depleted through the burning. The flares produce a thermal signature when deployed, intended to match that of an aircraft's and thus causing the missile to target the flare rather than the deploying aircraft. the downside of the Aerial Flares is conventional based Anti-Air Guns Flak Guns and improved Surface to Air Missiles and Air To Air Missiles which can able to ignore on flares as it focus on the targetting Aircraft.

  • Bunker Busters - The Bunker Buster Missiles was made available It is made to clear out buildings that have troops inside them, and also clear out tunnel networks and bunkers . It can also damage or kill infantry in the range of the blast.

  • Laser-Guided Missiles - All Ammerian Fighter Aircraft had laser-guided targeting, allowing them to do more damage against Surface Targets.

  • Aerial Point defense laser System - when General Malcolm 'Ace' Granger been fitted his King Raptors and F-117 Nighthawk with Aerial Point Defense Laser designed on destroying incoming Air to Air Missiles and Surface to Air Missiles. the downside of the Aerial Point Defense Laser is a conventional based Anti-Air Guns and Flak Guns.

  • Electronic Warfare - Ammerian Air Force Electronic Aircraft can used Electronic Warfare on jamming enemy radars and supporting ground forces with Electronic Support Measures (ESM) on AWACS Aircraft and Electronic Warfare Aircraft.
    Active electronically scanned array - An active electronically scanned array (AESA) is a type of phased array antenna, which is a computer-controlled array antenna in which the beam of radio waves can be electronically steered to point in different directions without moving the antenna. In the AESA, each antenna element is connected to a small solid-state transmit/receive module (TRM) under the control of a computer, which performs the functions of a transmitter and/or receiver for the antenna. This contrasts with a passive electronically scanned array (PESA), in which all the antenna elements are connected to a single transmitter and/or receiver through phase shifters under the control of the computer. AESA's main use is in radar, and these are known as active phased array radar (APAR).

    The AESA is a more advanced, sophisticated, second-generation of the original PESA phased array technology. PESAs can only emit a single beam of radio waves at a single frequency at a time. The AESA can radiate multiple beams of radio waves at multiple frequencies simultaneously. AESA radars can spread their signal emissions across a wider range of frequencies, which makes them more difficult to detect over background noise, allowing ships and aircraft to radiate powerful radar signals while still remaining stealthy.

  • Improved Air to Air Missiles - The Ammerian Air Force's relying on AIM-9 Sidewinder short range air to air missile the AIM-7 Sparrow Medium-range, semi-active radar homing air-to-air missile and AIM-120 Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile or AMRAAM as it become more formidable and upgradeable against any Dark Axis Aircraft in Air to Air Combat.

  • Stealth Technology -The Stealth aircraft Technology are designed to avoid detection using a variety of technologies that reduce reflection/emission of radar, infrared, visible light, radio frequency (RF) spectrum, and audio, collectively known as stealth technology. Well-known modern examples of stealth of Ammerian aircraft include the Ammeria's F-117 Nighthawk the B-2 Spirit, the F-22 Raptor, and the F-35 Lightning II.

Airman's Creed

the Airman's Creed. In a letter introducing the creed, Moseley wrote that one of his "top priorities" was to "reinvigorate the warrior ethos in every Airman of our Total Force." Thus, the intent of the creed was to enhance the building of a warrior ethos among its Airmen and to provide Airmen a tangible statement of beliefs.

The Airman's Creed helps establish a coherent bond between the members of the RAAF. The creed is fueled by the Air Force's heritage and, in the words of Moseley, "the warfighting-focused culture, conviction, character, ethic, mindset, spirit and soul we foster in all Airmen".

The creed has not been without controversy, as it supplanted all other creeds that the Air Force had been using (the NCO Creed, SNCO Creed, the Chief's creed, the First Sergeant's Creed, etc.).

The Airman's Creed

I am an Ammerian Airman.
I am a Warrior.
I have answered my Nation’s call.
I am an Ammerian Airman.
My mission is to Fly, Fight, and Win.
I am faithful to a Proud Heritage,
A Tradition of Honor,
And a Legacy of Valor.
I am an Ammerian Airman.
Guardian of Freedom and Justice,
My Nation’s Sword and Shield,
Its Sentry and Avenger.
I defend my Country with my Life.
I am an Ammerian Airman.
Wingman, Leader, Warrior.
I will never leave an Airman behind,
I will never falter,
And I will not fail.

The Republic of Emmerian Union
