Corpul 1 Aerian (1st Air Corps), was formed on 1 January 1943 from Gruparea Aerienă de Luptă (Air Combat Group - GAL). It was the only large Romanian air unit on the Eastern Front. After Romania changed sides in August 1944, the 1st Air Corps provided air support to the Romanian and Soviet armies in Transylvania, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia.
