Rose Riley, a Department of the Air Force spokeswoman, told Military.com last year that the service plans to shrink the Tactical Air Control Party, or TACP, job field to about 2,130 positions -- a decrease of 44%, according to the service. The Air Force said the manning is now "roughly" 3,700 airmen.
Other than the Warthogs, the AF sucks at CAS. Navy or Marine fixed wing is the way to go if calling in fast movers. In reality this won’t impact force posture except for the Army who relies on AF TACP.
