This book is designed for clear and easy reference to critical information about Air Force systems. The Air Force is leveraging its core strategic capabilities-Global Power, Global Reach, Global Vigilance, and Agile Combat Support-to ensure joint air, space, and cyberspace dominance; strengthen joint warfighting capabilities; and implement Total Force Integration.

Global Power
Global Power is the Air Force’s ability to control air and space-exploiting the medium to deliver a precise, tailored effect anywhere on the planet. Stealthy platforms and the precision-guided munitions they deliver provide a capability that is persistent, precise, survivable, and able to produce tactical, operational, and strategic effects.

Global Reach
Global challenges demand global responses. Whether they are humanitarian, military, or a mix of both, the Air Force meets these demands with an airlift and tanker fleet that has global reach. Global Reach provides the capability to move people and equipment across the world quickly, ensuring the right force-anywhere, anytime.

Global Vigilance
An accurate picture of the battlespace is critical to understanding and confronting challenges to our national security. Roughly 33 percent of the Air Force budget is dedicated to the sensors that collect imagery, de-conflict air and space assets, listen to adversary communications, enable precise navigation, and develop actionable intelligence. Global Vigilance provides the “network” that binds together joint and interagency players, ensuring our Nation’s ability to see first, think first, and act first.

Agile Combat Support
Agile Combat Support refers to systems that enable the Air Force to provide the key strategic
capabilities (Global Power, Global Reach, Global Vigilance) to the Joint Team.
