Eighth Air Force

The Eighth Air Force is a major part of the U.S. Air Force responsible for strategic bombing and air operations. Historically, during World War II, it was known for conducting large-scale daylight bombing campaigns over Europe to weaken enemy military and industrial capabilities. Today, it continues to play a key role in global combat readiness, often focusing on strategic deterrence, precision strikes, and supporting international missions. The Eighth Air Force operates advanced aircraft, including bombers and fighters, and emphasizes air superiority, intelligence, and precision warfare to protect national security interests.
