The Neo-Korean Aerial Defense Force, also known as the NKADF and the NKAF, is the aerial warfare component of the Neo-Korean State, responsible for airspace operations, electronic warfare, space operations including the launching of satellites, and the maintenance of national air radar systems. It has an estimated personnel number of 226,000 men, and approximately 900 aircraft, of which 400 are fighters.
The NKADF has its origins in the Kaesong-era Kaesong State Aerial Forces founded in 1918, organized from early experimental groupings in the Kaesong State Army and reorganized as a separate branch to prevent overfocus on ground affairs. The KSAF would prove effective in the Chamorro War, acting as a credible threat to the Marquesan Air Force through its advanced for-the-time monoplane fighter designs. Throughout the development of the Kāichrén Democratic State's own aerial endeavors, it would retain an effective capacity to fight against Marquesan as shown in the Great War - with the KDS being one of the first states to field an effective jet fighter, alongside a number of other missile and aerodynamic innovations brought forth and militarized during the course of the war.
In the modern day, it remains an effective force - with a number of effective craft, including the KB/KBO "Wyvern" being developed.
History
Kaesong
Kaesong would be an early adopter of independent airforce concepts following their early innovation in Meridon, with the creation of the Kaestong State Aerial Forces occuring shortly after the post-independence chaos had abated, with sections of the Kaesong State Army being split off in 1918. This split owed primarily to the recent developments made in monoplane technology, with the development of these early airframes being percieved as necessitating an independent branch to carry out conflict utilizing them. The airforce would be highly effective for its time, due to both effective cooperation with ground forces, purposefully encouraged by the first head of the KSAF, Morikawa Hirasada, alongside a number of other innovations allowed by the early investment in an independent research grouping for airplanes. The KSAF would recieve a large budget for the era, and would be able to use such to successfully develop a number of models.
