In the early 2000s, following decades of war, Afghanistans civil aviation system was on the verge of collapse and the Afghan government did not have the infrastructure or the capability to manage its airspace or provide other civil aviation services. As a result, the U.S. government, through the Department of Defense (DOD), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of State (State), and United States Agency for International Development (USAID) provided over $562 million for civil aviation-related activities in Afghanistan from 2002 to 2015. In addition, during that period, NATO provided civil aviation services for what NATO identifies as five essential civil aviation functions: air traffic control; fire crash and rescue; meteorology; communication, navigation, and surveillance; and airport safety management.
