What the hell

Afghanistan needs a strong Air Force .. since United States is the primary country training the Military , why dosnt the United States give a bunch F-16, F-18, and B-52 bombers to its Afghan Allies. Instead of those crappy east European planes that they are using now... and while there at it adds some Cobra helicopters to the Afghans wish list —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.81.130.141 (talk) 06:37, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's mostly likely due to the fact that the military of Afghanistan is not yet capable of handling f-16s, f-18s, B-52s. Giving those types of planes to them now is dangerous because there isn't any well trained Afghan Airforce pilots.--Kipperz (talk) 23:11, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also, the United States won't make the mistake of arming the terrorists again. Afghanistan is far too unstable to be given/sold any advanced aircraft at the risk of them being stolen by the insurgents. And the fact that the military is woefully underfunded to take any large amount of high-cost aircraft like B-52s or F-16s and maintain them. The extremely poor infrastructure may also have something to do with it. Canationalist (talk) 18:30, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Official name

The official name is "Afghan National Army Air Corps" (ANAAC)[1][2] --Raoulduke47 (talk) 15:39, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Attack aircraft instead of pure trainer.

I understand L-39 is a trainer, but in this case, what are they training for? They have no jet fighter so I see the L-39 as attack aircraft, not as pure trainer. So they only train to pilot for the same aircraft they are flying, the L-39. Are they planning to train for front line jets to be purchased in the future?

Support. The ISAF site has 135 deghosted examples for "Afghan Air Force", and only 2 that sort of correspond to the current title. Here is an example of the proposed form in Aviation Week. Kauffner (talk) 15:56, 20 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A-29 name

The A-29 should be called the A-29, which is synonymous for the EMB 314. Separate variants include the A-29A (single seat) and A-29B (two seater). According to this source they are the same aircraft: http://www.militaryfactory.com/aircraft/detail.asp?aircraft_id=718

As well the Afghan Air Force calls it's the A-29 not EMB 314. Garuda28 (talk) 17:29, 1 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Going off of that it seems like when the Canadians call their F/A-18s CF-118s, even though their the same aircraft. Looks like Fox52 is mis reading the information and seeing a separate variant when it's just an alternate designation. 2600:100E:B008:85F8:8463:5EDE:B6DE:1973 (talk) 18:23, 2 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
