The Association of African Air Forces (AAAF) is a voluntary and non-political organization; membership is open to Air Forces or their equivalent within the continent of Africa and the United States of America. The Association is operated with support from the United States Air Forces in Europe - Air Forces Africa (USAFE-AFAFRICA); a United States Air Force major command (MAJCOM) and a component command of both United States European Command (USEUCOM) and United States Africa Command (USAFRICOM).[1]
AAAF fosters collaborative, multilateral engagements to promote African-led air power solutions that address trans-national threats, and efficient use of air resources to improve air operations across Africa. During the 5th annual African Air Chief Symposium (AACS), AAAF was established and all signatory members "have an equal voice within the association, and will be recognized as the air force or the equivalent service of every other signing country."[2]
