The establishment of the Ninth Air Force as the tactical air arm of the United States Army Air Forces in the United Kingdom (USAAFUK) is a story whose beginnings go back to the earliest use of tactical aircraft. By a tactical air force is meant an organization composed of medium and light bombers and fighters which acts in a close and equal partnership with the ground forces engaged in combat. Either by direct participation in the battle, or by attempting to isolated the combat area from enemy reinforcements, it has become an indispensable partner of the ground forces in modern warfare.
