INTRODUCTION:

The Indian Air Force is the air arm of the Indian armed forces. Its complement of personnel and
aircraft assets ranks fourth amongst the air forces of the world. Its primary mission is to secure
Indian airspace and to conduct aerial warfare during armed conflict. It was officially established
on 8 October 1932 as an auxiliary air force of the British Empire which honored India's aviation
service during World War II with the prefix Royal .After India gained independence from
the United Kingdom in 1947, the name Royal Indian Air Force was kept and served in the name
of Dominion of India. With the government's transition to a Republic in 1950, the
prefix Royal was removed after only three years.
Since 1950 the IAF has been involved in four wars with neighboring Pakistan and one with the
People's Republic of China. Other major operations undertaken by the IAF
include Operation Vijay, Operation Meghdoot, Operation Cactus and Operation Poomalai. The
IAF's mission expands beyond engagement with hostile forces, with the IAF participating
in United Nations peacekeeping missions.

The President of India holds the rank of Supreme Commander of the IAF.As of 1 July 2017,
139,576 personnel are in service with the Indian Air Force.[The Chief of Air Staff, an air chief
marshal, is a four-star officer and is responsible for the bulk of operational command of the Air
Force. There is never more than one serving ACM at any given time in the IAF. The rank
of Marshal of the Air Force has been conferred by the President of India on one occasion in
history, to Arjan Singh. On 26 January 2002 Singh became the first and so far, only five-star
rank officer of the IAF.

CONCLUSION:

This report attempts to contribute to the body of knowledge on Air force. It is hoped that it will
inspire and facilitate increased cooperation, innovation and commitment to preventing road
traffic crashes around the world. Air forces crashes are predictable and therefore preventable. In
order to combat the problem, though, there needs to be close coordination and collaboration,
using a holistic and integrated approach, across many sectors and many disciplines. While there
are many interventions that can save lives and limbs, political will and commitment are essential
and without them little can be achieved. The time to act is now.

RECOMENDATIONS :

The world faces a global road safety crisis that has not yet been fully recognized and that will
continue to grow unless appropriate action is taken. International organizations – including
United Nations agencies, nongovernmental organizations and multinational corporations – and
donor countries and agencies have important roles to play in addressing this crisis and
strengthening Air forces around the world.

Economics related to Air force act:

The Delhi High Court today directed the Indian Air Force Act to review and change its
protocols dealing with issues of stress and substance abuse in the force, saying its systems have
to be in tune with the law.
The Indian Air Force has prepared a 10-year modernisation plan that identifies technologiesNSE
-2.36 % and services that it requires and is set to share it with the private sector. But just 10-15%
of the over Rs 2.5 lakh crore projected acquisitions are expected to be from domestic
manufacturers.
On the anvil are acquisition projects worth more than Rs 2.5 lakh crore, it says. “Unfortunately,
only 10-15% of these are expected to be from indigenous sources as the technologies needed are
not available indigenously.” The report lists maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) as a major
area for industry participation, as “creating a defence MRO in private sector has not only become
a reality but it is also well facilitated by liberal government policies”.

The areas that the private sector can contribute in MRO range from airframe and aero engines to
airfield safety systems like crash tender and arrester barriers, it says. The paper suggests a cluster
of industries — particularly of micro, small and medium enterprises — to be set up to meet the
needs of the air force.

“There is a huge potential for indigenisation of capital equipment as well as maintenance spares
in IAF.

Indian Air force act deals with the macro economics . International trading is the major source,
both imports and exports are being done. The good International product has a more demand.
Some laws are there to control the Air force Act which will violate it
