The USAF is organized on a functional basis in the United States and a geographical basis overseas . A major command ( MAJCOM ) represents a major Air Force subdivision having a specific portion of the Air Force mission . Each MAJCOM is directly subordinate to HAF . MAJCOMs are interrelated and complementary , providing offensive , defensive , and support elements . An operational command consists ( in whole or in part ) of strategic , tactical , space , or defense forces ; or of flying forces that directly support such forces . A support command may provide supplies , weapon systems , support systems , operational support equipment , combat material , maintenance , surface transportation , education and training , or special services and other supported organizations . The USAF experienced its last major reorganization of commands in 1992 . In July 2006 , the Air Force Network Operations ( AFNETOPS ) command was stood up at Barksdale Air Force Base . At the time , it was anticipated that it would be transformed into a new MAJCOM : the Air Force Cyber Command . However , this did not occur , and AFNETOPS was integrated into Space Command . Since its inception in 1947 , a total of 27 organizations have been designated as major commands . Over time , the role of MAJCOMs have changed : some were replaced with NAFs , while some NAFs were replaced with MAJCOMs . Currently , the USAF is currently organized into ten MAJCOMS ( 8 Functional and 2 Geographic ) , with the Air National Guard component reporting to Headquarters , United States Air Force ( HAF ) . The most recent major command , Air Force Global Strike Command , activated in August 2009 . The other MAJCOMs have either inactivated or lost their command status .

In late 1934 , the U . S . Navy ' s Bureau of Aeronautics ( BuAer ) issued a specification for new scout bomber and torpedo bomber designs . Eight companies submitted ten designs in response , evenly split between monoplanes and biplanes . Exemplifying the Bureau of Aeronautics ' reluctance to fully embrace the monoplane configuration for carrier - based aircraft , the XSB3U - 1 was proposed as a more conventional alternative to Vought ' s XSB2U - 1 , which was designed as a modern monoplane . The XSB3U was modified from the last production SBU Corsair , using essentially the same airframe , including a fully enclosed cockpit , and Pratt & Whitney R - 1535 radial engine , but with a more streamlined surface and cowling . In addition , the XSB3U had fully retractable landing gear . Operational history . The XSB3U - 1 was delivered to Naval Air Station Anacostia for evaluation by the U . S . Navy in April 1936 ; , at the same time as its primary competition , the XSB2U - 1 .

However , the Navy was impressed by the XSB3U ' s method of landing gear retraction , which provided a more streamlined surface after retraction than most other methods used at the time . Following the end of the evaluation , the XSB3U was retained by the Navy , and utilised for experimental and liaison purposes by the Navy , also being utilised by NACA at Langley Field for testing of tail loads starting in August 1938 , continuing through January 1939 when the aircraft was returned to the Navy , being retired shortly thereafter .
