The Royal Air Service of Burgundie (Burg: Servis d'aerie real de Burgundie) is the air force and space force of the Burgoignesc Security Forces. It was the first military aviation force in history, formed in 1893 as the Royal Balloon Observation Corps, a service arm of the Navy of Burgundie; it became an independent military branch in 1945 as the Royal Air Service.
It has 184,980 uniformed members (126,349 active duty members and 58,631 reservists), maintains ~2,000 aircraft, and ~142 (non-nuclear) ICBMs.
Mission
The Royal Air Service of Burgundie (Burg: Servis d'aerie real de Burgundie), serves as the air-based branch of the Civil Defense and Security Ministry in the Burgoignesc Security Forces. The mission the Air Service is charged with is:
- Preserving the peace and security, and providing for the defense of The Burgundies, and any areas occupied by Burgundie;
- Maintaining and preparing against future threats to the sovereignty of Burgundie;
- Implementing the national objectives for aerial and space forces as determined by the national government of Burgundie; and
- Overcoming any nations or parties responsible for aggressive acts that imperil the peace, security, or commerce of The Burgundies.
Strategic doctrine
Le Servis d'aerie works to achieve its mission through its strategic approach. The strategic approach is that the Air Service is always prepared to:
- rapidly and with oppressive force, engage all enemies in a prompt, but fully logistically-supported fashion;
- wage sustained aerial and space-based combat against any opponent;
- conduct combined arms operations with unified command structures, combat objectives, and communications;
- execute special operations in support of ongoing military operations;
- establish and sustain the theater or area of operations for joint forces operations; and
- liaison, integrate, and fight with valor alongside national, and multinational forces.
Tactical approach
History
Development of aircraft in Burgundie
Early History
Royal Balloon Observation Corps
blimps and shit
Company of Dirigeable Guides of the Puhkgundie Rifles
blimps for artillery observation and general recon at first and then they put a maxim gun on it in 1915 and nothing was ever the same again
Aeronautique Maritime
Lots of sea planes, first as observers, then torpedo bombers, then in the 20s tons of intercepters and flying boat transports
Royal Aeroplane Society
Lots of plane racing, mostly just a funding mechanism for development
Aerodrome Militare della Strates
First concieved to expand the capabilities of the Company of Dirigeable Guides of the Puhkgundie Rifles, to other units but with a focus on airplanes instead of dirigibles.
Lots of artillery observation and general recon at first, hence lots of glass and giant cockpits.
Later focused on ground attack and bombers, then intercepters in the 20s when other countries also get planes, coastal patrol aircraft for the coastal artillery folks.
