Zračne snage Republike Kine ROCAF (Zhōnghuá Mínguó Kōngjūn) često smatraju jednom od tehnološki najnaprednijih i borbeno najsposobnijih grana Oružanih snaga Republike Kine. Glavni zadatak Zračnih snaga RK je odbrana zračnog prostora oko i nad teritorijem Tajvana od napada snaga Narodne Republike Kine. Trenutni prioriteti ROCAF-a su razvijanje snaga za daljinsko izviđanje i nadgledanje zračnog prostora, nabavu novog oružja za protuudar, nabava najnovijih generacija aviona te utvrđivanje i uređenje aerodroma i ostalih objekata za "preživljavanje" iznenadnih napada.

      The Republic of China Air Force (Zhōnghuá Mínguó Kōngjūn) is often viewed as one of the most technologically advanced and combat capable branches of the Republic of China's armed forces. The ROCAF's primary mission is the defense of the airspace over and around Taiwan against an attack by the Peoples Republic of China. Current priorities of the ROCAF include the development of long range reconnaissance and surveillance networks, procuring counterstrike weapons, next generation fighters, and hardening airfields and other facilities to survive a surprise attack.

      Kroz niz godina su provođene razne reorganizacije u kojima je prvobitna organizacija bila uređena prema USA modelu Taktičko-borbenih formacija (Tactical Fighter Wings) (sa niskim brojevima prva, druga itd...) i Taktičkim borbenim eskadrilama. 1976. godine dva puta mjenjaju „brojeve“, prvo su im dodijeli velike brojeve pa tako 1. postaje 558. itd... Da bi im iste godine, „smanjili“ brojeve grupa, ali opet ostaju visoko, pa tako 558. postaje 443. taktičko-borbena formacija (Wing). Eskadrile zadržavaju stare brojeve (niske). Reorganizacijom se uvode Taktičko-operativne grupe (Tactical Fighter Groups) (na engleskom, dok je originalni kineski naziv Operativne grupe).  

      Several reorganisation of the Air Force command structure took  place. Initial organisation was based on the USAF structure of Tactical Fighter Wings (with low numbers: 1st, 2nd etc) and  Tactical Fighter Squadrons.The numbering of the Wings was modified in 1976 into  Tactical Fighter Wings with high numbers: 558th (ex 1st) etc,  in same year quickly changed to new, similarly high numbered  (eg: the 558th Tactical Fighter Wing became 443rd Tactical  Fighter Wing). The Squadrons kept their original numbers. Air Force reorganisations led to the introduction of Tactical  Fighter Groups (Operations Groups in Chinese language). These  were placed in the command structure between the Wing and  the Squadrons. On 29-10-2002 a new reorganisation saw the disbandment of the previous command structure and the redesignation of all front-line Fighter Squadrons as Tactical Fighter Groups (Operations Groups in Chinese language); the Northrop F-5 equipped Squadrons of the 737th TFW/7th TFW kept their old Squadron designation as they are training units.

443rd TACTICAL FIGHTER WING     443. TAKTIČKO-BORBENA GRUPA

      443. avio puk (od Tactical Fighter Wing, moj prijevod, dok ne pronađem bolji) koji se sastoji od 1., 3. i 9. Taktičko-borbene eskadrile je jedan od najstarijih Tajvanskih avijacijskih jedinica. Osnovani su u Nanchangu na kopnu. 1. Taktičko-borbena eskadrila je prva eskadrila koja je iz bombarderske pretvorna u lovačku eskadrilu i to 1965. godine. Operativno reorganiziranje 1. 3. i 9. Eskadrile dovršeno je 24. 03. 1968. godine.

      The 443^rd Wing, composed of 1^st , 3^rd and 9^th Tactical Fighter Squadrons is one of the oldest Republic of China AF units, established in November 1936 as 1st Bombardment Group at Nanchang on the Chinese mainland. The 1st Tactical Fighter Squadron was the first Republic of China AF Squadron to convert on the fighter in 1965. Operational conversion of the 3rd (from Republic F-84G) and 9th Squadron (from North American F-86F) and the 1st Squadron was completed in by 24.03.1968.

455rd TACTICAL FIGHTER WING     455. TAKTIČKO-BORBENA GRUPA

      455. taktičku borbeni puk (Tactical Fighter Wing) koji se sastoji od 21., 22. i 23 taktičko-borbene eskadrile baziran je u Chiyai Avio-bazi. Tokom 1977. na 1978. godinu su opremljeni avionima F-5e i to u fazama, pola jedinice je bilo na obuci,a druga polovina jedinice je bila borbeno operativana. Uglavnom su lovci-bombarderi, ali su tu i avio borbe kao i transport i avio pratnja.

      The Chiyai AB based 455th Wing's, 4th Group's 21st, 22nd and 23rd Squadrons were equipped with North American F-100A/C and North American F-100F when they started conversion to the Northrop F-5E in 1977, completed on 27-01-78. The conversion was with a phased program involving half of the pilots in a Squadron at one time, as a mean of keeping the units combat ready during the transition period. Wing's duties were mainly fighter-bomber, followed by air combat and transport air draft escort.
