The NATO Training Mission-Afghanistan (NTM-A) activated the NATO Air Training Command-Afghanistan (NATC-A) in September 2010[6] while simultaneously deactivating its predecessor, the Coalition Air Power Transition Force (CAPTF). This reflected a change from a primarily US led and staffed mission to one that encompassed many other countries within the larger NATO training mission in Afghanistan.

NATC-A was replaced by the Train, Advise, Assist Command – Air, or TAAC-Air[7] in January 2015 as the NATO campaign in Afghanistan transitioned to the Resolute Support Mission.
