The former, the flying squadrons, are further subdivided into regional commands that compose fighter squadrons, the modern bomber-equivalent strike fighter squadrons, and transport or helicopter squadrons. Supporting squadrons, wings, and flights usually serve in a maintenance capacity or non-flight mission sets such as radar, early warning, or staff and administration.

The Arcer Air Force is organized into a number of different command structures, classified by flying, support, or training types. The former, the flying squadrons, are further subdivided into regional commands that compose fighter squadrons, the modern bomber-equivalent strike fighter squadrons, and transport or helicopter squadrons. Supporting squadrons, wings, and flights usually serve in a maintenance capacity or non-flight mission sets such as radar, early warning, or staff and administration. Both flight squadrons and support squadrons are further fed through the training system which provides trained pilots, engineers, aircrew, and maintainers to the multitude of units within the Arcer Air Force.
Active and Reserve Components
The Arcer Air Force is subdivided further by two separate components, those being the Active or Regular Air Force, and the Reserve and Territorial units. Regular units are full-time flight crew or support staff in uniformed service, and it is their primary means of employment and served a variety of fixed-year contracts while in service. These are augmented by a variety of reserve formations, which are usually in the supporting functions such as procurement, research and development, staff and headquarters, or training. Much of the reserve force in the Arcer Air Force is made up of pilots and aircrew who have gone on to similar careers in civilian industries such as aerospace and civilian airliners.
