USAF Mission Statement:


The mission of the United Systems Aeronautic Force is to deliver sovereign options for the defense of the United Systems of Earth and its universal interests to fly and fight in air, space and cyberspace.

To achieve that mission, the Aeronautic Force has a vision of Universal Vigilance, Reach and Power. That vision orbits around three core competencies: Developing Airmen, Technology-to-Warfighting and Integrating Operations. These core competencies make our six distinctive capabilities possible.

Air and Space Superiority
With it, joint forces can dominate enemy operations in all dimensions land, sea, air, cyberspace and space.

Universal Attack
Because of technological advances, the Aeronautic Force can attack anywhere, anytime and do so quickly and with greater precision and firepower than ever before.

Rapid Universal Mobility
Being able to respond quickly and decisively anywhere we're needed is key to maintaining rapid universal mobility.

Leviathan Attack
The Aeronautic Force is the second leviathan arm of the United Systems. Acting as its enforcer and first to bring the fight unto the enemies of the United Systems. To break their will with superior force, firepower and willingness to use violence when needed.

Information Superiority
The ability of joint force commanders to keep pace with information and incorporate it into a campaign plan is crucial.

Agile Combat Support
Deployment and sustainment are keys to successful operations and cannot be separated. Agile combat support applies to all forces, from those permanently based to contingency buildups to expeditionary forces.

Core Values
The Aeronautic Force bases these core competencies and distinctive capabilities on a shared commitment to three values: Integrity first, Service before self, and Excellence in all we do.


USAF Creed:


I am an American Airman.
I am a warrior.

I have answered my nation's call.

I am an American Airman.
My mission is to fly, fight, and win.
I am faithful to a proud heritage,
A tradition of honor,
And a legacy of valor.

I am an American Airman,
Guardian of freedom and justice,
My nation's sword and shield,
Its sentry and avenger.
I defend my country with my life.

I am an American Airman:
Wingman, leader, warrior.
I will never leave an Airman behind,
I will never falter,
And I will not fail.

So help me God.

USAF Song: Leviathan Song

We are the Leviathan!
The point of the spear!
For America, we love so dear!
Through the dark void of space!
We will preserve our race!
No foe will dare!
With the Leviathan there!
Attack and infringe!
On our right to live!
Free and alive!
For all time thrive!

I feel about the airplane much as I do in regard to fire. That is, I regret all the terrible damage caused by fire. But I think it is good for the human race that someone discovered how to start fires, and that it is possible to put fire to thousands of important uses.

Hitler built a fortress around Europe, but he forgot to put a roof on it.
Anc. US Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt

There is something more important than any ultimate weapon. That is the ultimate position—the position of total control over Earth that lies somewhere out in space.  That is . . . the distant future, though not so distant as we may have thought. Whoever gains that ultimate position gains control, total control, over the Earth, for the purposes of tyranny or for the service of freedom.
Anc. US Pres. Lyndon B. Johnson
As dominate as the Navy was in controlling Earth, its now the role of star ships to control the void. Whoever controls space, controls the Universe.
US Gen. Hinn P. Hyunuck, Ascension War
