Royal Thai Air Force

rtaf.mi.th is the official portal of the Royal Thai Air Force, one of Asia's oldest air forces (founded November 2, 1913; independent since 1937), with ~46,000 personnel and 11 combat wings, now running a modern Odoo-based portal publishing financial reports, procurement plans, and White Papers on its "Unbeatable Air Force" roadmap to 2037. Its fleet spans 46 F-16s, 11 Gripen C/D, 13 F-5TH Super Tigris, Saab 340 Erieye AEW&C, C-130s, and a VIP fleet including an ex-Thai Airways A340-500. In July 2025 the RTAF fought its first combat since 1988 in the Thai-Cambodian border conflict, with its Gripens achieving the type's first-ever combat weapons launch. The centerpiece modernization is the Gripen E/F program: Thailand signed the $550M "Peace Burapha 1" contract in August 2025 — first in APAC — with deliveries from 2029 and 8 more jets sought toward a 12-aircraft squadron by 2037.
