Top Air Forces: The Air Force is the branch of a country’s armed forces responsible for aerial warfare. They operate a variety of aircraft, including fighters, bombers, transport aircraft, and surveillance aircraft, as well as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or drones. Their primary roles include air superiority (control of the skies in combat), strategic bombing (targeting enemy infrastructure), aerial reconnaissance (gathering intelligence), close air support (supporting ground forces), and air defense operations (transporting troops and supplies).
Modern air forces are equipped with advanced technology such as stealth aircraft, precision-guided weapons, and advanced radar and electronic warfare systems.The strategic importance of air power has increased significantly since World War I, and air superiority is often the deciding factor in modern military conflicts.
