Organisation

The Corkonian Airforce is divided into Wings in which they are responsible for command over an entire region, i.e Hibernian Wing being in command of all aircraft within Ireland.

Equipment

Main Article: Equipment of the Corkonian Airforce
The Corkonian Airforce's inventory is filled from numerous aircraft from differing nations, of which a lot are logistical, recon and utility roles. Cork however does maintain a large fighter collection along with an air support arm.

Helicopters

The airforce typically does not operate helicopters as that role goes to the Army Air Corps, however the airforce does maintain a small fleet of helicopter aircraft all of which being utility aircraft for transport or vip transport.

The airforce sacrificed all helicopters to the Army Air Corps with the Corkonian Armed Forces 2024 Re-Organisation Act making a clear divide on what the army air corps main goal is.
