Air Force Police

Flogherløgreglan

The Air Force Police (AFP) is a specialist military police force dedicated to protecting air bases across the country. Unlike the Military Police (who are often based at air bases as well), the AFP are specially trained for air side operations, and regularly patrol the aprons and taxiways of air bases, looking for anyone tampering military hardware, and ensuring everyone duty is obeying the law.

Due to the often rural locations of air bases, the AFP have a small "over the fence" radius, allowing AFP officers to respond to urgent incidents where the local police forces are unable to respond quickly.

The handling of arrested air force personnel outside of air bases is usually deferred to the Military Police.

Inter-Agency Working

The Air Force Police have a close working relationship with the Military Police, who are often based alongside the AFP at military installations across the country.

If a local police force grants the AFP "over the fence" permissions, the AFP will work closely with those local forces to ensure assistance is provided in a timely manner.

The AFP is based at air bases in:

  • San Andreas (Fort Zancudo)
  • Vice City (Fort Baxter)

Real World Analogue

The Air Force Police I use in game is roughly based on the UK's Royal Air Force Police (RAFP) with some very minor differences.
