What is the AF's model to ensure combat readiness for the total force to support global contingencies?

• A. AFFORGEN 4-Phase (BIN) Model
• B. Total Force Readiness Model
• C. Global Contingency Readiness Model
• D. Joint Readiness Framework

Answer: (A)

This item tests knowledge of the Air Force’s formal method for moving the Total Force through a disciplined cycle so forces are ready to respond to global contingencies. The Air Force uses AFFORGEN, the four‑phase (BIN) model, to plan, generate, sustain, and reconstitute forces across active, Reserve, and Guard components. This structure provides a repeatable, integrated process to align manpower, training, and equipment with current and anticipated requirements, ensuring units can deploy when needed and surge capabilities if a crisis grows. Other options aren’t the official Air Force force‑generation framework designed to coordinate the entire Total Force for worldwide contingencies, so AFFORGEN is the correct model.
