MISSION AND VISION
THE MISSION OF THE UNITED STATES AIR FORCE IS TO FLY, FIGHT, AND WIN...AIRPOWER
ANYTIME, ANYWHERE.
TO ACHIEVE THAT MISSION, THE AIR FORCE HAS A VISION:
With a Total Force of more than 689,000 personnel, Airmen work to support all
aspects of airpower, which includes five core functions: air superiority; global
strike; rapid global mobility; intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance;
and command and control. Airpower also requires people and resources dedicated
to unit readiness, base infrastructure and talent management.
"Simply put, we deter and defeat aggression to defend and protect our nation and
its interests." – Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. David W. Allvin
