Air defence forces
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Air defence forces are military forces providing protection from enemy air units and primarily responsible for anti-aircraft warfare.[1] [2]
They can be divided into tactical and strategic. Strategic air defense forces provide generally static defense to static targets (military bases, cities, etc.) while the tactical air defense forces are mobile and provide defense for military forces (usually, ground forces).
