You really think the Air Force supports itself. You way overestimate the airlift capacity of the Air Force. They couldn't transport enough JP to keep one fighter squadron in the air. Much less the food, supplies and other necessities for the people to keep the jets in the air.
The Air Force is very limited in what they do - although what they do they do very well.

Please I would like to know more.
B/c the AF is the logistical backbone of the military, esp during the last two conflicts.

On the flip side, I know a guy that delivered hundreds of thousands of pounds of beans, bullets, and blood to grunts on the ground with no Amazon Prime access. No real roads to speak of. The guys on the ground depended on that C-130 for the water they drank and to haul their injured to the hospital. Their very existence was dependent on air power.
