The United States has the most powerful military in the world. Period. There is no other fighting force stronger than it. It has more planes, more ships, and more technology than any other country on the planet. And while it may not have a million-strong army like in North Korea or China, there is a reason that the entire world looks to the United States when they want to defend themselves.
A closer look at the U.S. Armed Forces reveals that the arguably most instrumental branch in ensuring the United States, its allies, and its interests all over the world are safe and remain so is the U.S. Air Force. The Air Force is perhaps of the most storied, prestigious, and interesting branch in the entirety of the United States Armed Forces. This is due to the fact that the United States can get planes up in the air and anywhere in the world in a matter of hours. In fact, when the United States started bombing Iraq during Operation Iraqi Freedom, it sent bombers from the center of the country to stealthily fly halfway around the world in order to drop bombs on Saddam Hussein’s militant forces.



The United States Air Force truly has a global reach, which relies on much more than sending out airplanes, as it also defends the airspace of the United States itself. It does this with various surface to air missile sites, patriot missile batteries, and even a Star Wars style anti-missile defense system. First developed (and ridiculed) under United States President Ronald Reagan, with the recent rise in aggressiveness from North Korea, China, and Russia, the American public has now demanded that the United States fix up and invest in the system. In addition, with allegations of foreign meddling in American cyberspace, it is up to the U.S. Air Force to defend the country from malicious cyber attacks. It is because of techniques developed by the Air Force, coupled with their strong and capable soldiers that the United States is able to defend against cyber attacks on critical infrastructure such as dams, electrical grids, and power plants. They are also tasked with defending against cyber attacks on government institutions.
There are a ton of amazing things that the United States Air Force does in America and around the world every day. We wanted to find out more about the most expensive branch in the military, and we discovered that…

It turns out that the United States Air Force was not always its own separate entity. In fact, back when the United States first started using planes in warfare in World War One (but used them as surveillance craft during the operation against Mexican revolutionary Pancho Villa’s rebels), the pilots and bombers were technically a part of the United States Army! What we now know as the Air Force started out as the the U.S. Army Signal Corps formed the Aeronautical Division. The Air Force would not become its own branch until 1947.
