The Mali Air Force (French: Armée de l'air du Mali), established in 1961, serves as the primary aerial warfare branch of Mali's armed forces.[3] The force was initially created with the assistance of the French military, which provided training and equipment to establish the air force's initial capabilities.[4] In the following years, the Mali Air Force received significant support from the Soviet Union, which provided both equipment and training to the force.[5]
