Air Army

An air army was a type of large military formation, comprising several corps or divisions, in the forces of the Soviet Union and the Japanese Empire before, during and after the Second World War. Today only the Russian Federation's Russian Air Force retains air armies.

Famous quotes containing the word army:

    “What is called common sense is excellent in its department, and as invaluable as the virtue of conformity in the army and navy,—for there must be subordination,—but uncommon sense, that sense which is common only to the wisest, is as much more excellent as it is more rare.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
