The Norvish Air Force (NAF) is the principal aerial fighting branch of the Norvish Armed Forces, along with the Navy and the Ground Forces. The remote origins of the NAF go back to the early 20th century with the establishment of the first military air unit in 1926, the Military Aeronautics School in 1928, alongside the Ground, and the Navy aviation service. The NAF is commanded by the Chief of Staff of the Air Force, a subordinate of the Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces for operational matters and a direct subordinate of the Minister of National Defense for all other matters. The Chief of Staffs are the only officer in the Air Force with the rank of general (four-star rank).
Presently, the NAF is an entirely professional force made of career personnel (officers and NCOs) and of volunteer personnel (officers, NCOs, and enlisted ranks). As of 2022, the NAF employed a total of 14,320 active personnel consisting of pilots, infantry, staffs, maintenance worker, engineers, airfield defense unit and so on. Additionally, the Air Force further included 1,800 reservist and 562 civilian employees.
It operates the majority of the country's fixed wing aircraft, numbering 180+ assets. The other 114 aircraft belongs to the Ground force and Navy aviation command, which works under their respective branches for specific tasks. And altough both the Ground and Navy aviation also operates rotary-wing aircraft for transporting, patrols, logistics etc, The authority of using large aircraft assets is directed under the Air Force Command such as the capabilites of long range bombing and maintaning overall air securities in the country. The NAF provides support across a spectrum of operations such as air superiority, precision strikes, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, air mobility, space surveillance, and humanitarian support.
