What is the main purpose of the Air Force during peacetime?

Question:


Answer:
The main purpose of the Air Force outside of war is to be on stand-by to protect our country.

During peacetime craft and crew should be maintained and trained so that when called upon they are ready for the job. They should be constantly ready for an emergency, and reliable. The Air Force can also be used in humanitarium efforts which, most recently, involved aid for Tsunami victims.

Seriously, do they need a purpose? I mean, they are here during peacetime waiting to defend our country at a moment's notice. I see that as their general purpose.

Also, they deliver care packages to places in the world who are in need, and also during holidays, they do many charitable actions in our own country.
