Reminder :
"FAR"
or "Reserved Air Force" :
Units under the exclusive responsibility of the Air
Force and dedicated to the defense of the territory. Some "Reserved"
units were, however, likely to provide rapid but occasional support
in the event of attack: these units are marked in yellow in the
table below
"FAC"
ou "Air Forces of Cooperation" :
means units provided to the Army for the support of troops on the
ground. They are attached to "FA" (Army Air Force of the Army) and
therefore to units of the Army. The "FAs" are described in more
detail in the "FA" page of the menu on the left.
