Air Combat Command (ACC), Luftstridskommandot, är sedan 1992 ett huvudkommando inom USA:s flygvapen.[1] Större del av flygvapnets taktiska stridsflyg är organiserat under ACC, med undantag för de förband som sorterar under U.S. Air Forces in Europe (USAFE) och U.S. Pacific Air Forces (PACAF).

Högkvarteret ligger vid Langley Air Force Base i Virginia.

Bakgrund

Air Combat Command bildades 1992 och dess ingående förband hade tidigare tillhört Military Airlift Command, Tactical Air Command samt Strategic Air Command.

Från 1992 ingick flygvapnets strategiska robotstyrkor i ACC och de fördes 1993 över till Air Force Space Command. Strategiska bombflyget fördes 2008 från ACC över till det nystartade Air Force Global Strike Command. ACC var flygvapenkomponenten till U.S. Joint Forces Command mellan 1999 och 2011.
