The National Frisian Air Force was formed in 1907 and was first established for aerial reconnaissance missions during the Red Revolt after the revolutionaries began conducting unconventional warfare that would normally be undetectable on the ground by the army, so the need for aerial reconnaissance became a demand by the army which lead to the Minister of War to look into aviation from around the world to fit this need. The air force stayed a reconnaissance force for a while until the need for a faster method of infantry support was demanded by the army to help support large-scale infantry campaigns and Airborne Assaults against Frisia-Hollandia leading to the NFAF conducting combat operations and close air support. | The National Frisian Air Force was formed in 1907 and was first established for aerial reconnaissance missions during the Red Revolt after the revolutionaries began conducting unconventional warfare that would normally be undetectable on the ground by the army, so the need for aerial reconnaissance became a demand by the army which lead to the Minister of War to look into aviation from around the world to fit this need.
