Wilkonia upon its entry into the War soon realized that planners and operational staff at the then Imperial Wilkonian Army Air Corps were not receiving sufficient control over the operational needs of a modern air force. As such Parliament acted to seperate the Air Service asa seperate branch co-equal with the other three and gave it greater authority to set procurement, training, and operational priorities than possible under Army administration.
