Allied Tactical Air Forces

The Allied Tactical Air Forces (ATAF) are military units comprised of fighter jets, attack aircraft, and support personnel from multiple allied countries, coordinating to provide air support during combat operations. Their role is to seek out and attack enemy targets, defend friendly forces, and maintain air superiority in a specific region. Operating under agreed command structures, ATAFs ensure swift, integrated air actions that complement ground and sea forces, enhancing overall military effectiveness. They exemplify international cooperation, allowing allied nations to share resources and expertise for collective security within a unified operational framework.
