(Air Force)

Russian VVS was began in 1920s by Marshall Gregorie Plutkov of the Regular Army that was then used to be called the Red Army. He began it as a division of the ground forces, and it was mostly used for reconnaissance. However in 1934 it became a separate branch of the military. Since then it has evolved into one of the best air forces on the planet.

VVS Divisions are stationed on the military airbases scattered across the country, each division has its own airbase, which falls under the jurisdiction of the general commanding that division. There are total of 98 divisions: 24 Air Attack Divisions, 19 Ground Attack Divisions, 21 Transport divisions, 28 Paratrooper Divisions, 12 Bomber Divisions, 1 VO and 3 Guards Air Force Divisions.

All divisions follow orders given by the Marshall of Russian Federation.

Gvardia has its own air force. Originally it was a separate branch of the armed forces called the Primer Ministerial Wing and was used mainly for transportation and protection of the Prime Minister and his office. However it became a fully functioning part of Gvardia, used for transportation, ground support and so on. There are three divisions, one is for air defense, another for ground attack and third one is for transportation. The transportation division also transports paratroops for the rest of Gvardia since the Guards Pehota receives paratrooper training.
