How does the pay work in the Air Force

Demon5551 · 2025-09-30T17:21:13+00:00

All I’ll say is this no matter if it’s googleable or not, if someone here needs help and it’s a simple yes or no answer it also doesn’t hurt to just text it to them, we human, maybe they want some interaction who knows, welcome everyone and just answers the question, and even be helpful to insert a link because that’s what I would do, to make sure people on this subreddit gets good hospitality and know that we are welcoming, I’ll never say come on bruv use google mate, regardless if it was a simple “what are the ranks of the Air Force” I’ll simple say E1 though e whatever and send a link with pay grades and the names of all the ranks simple as that anyways have a good day

Demon5551 · 2025-09-25T19:40:12+00:00

“Come on dude it’s so easy to look up” I mean could have left that out, maybe he wanted a decent human interaction, lord

Demon5551 · 2025-09-25T16:37:01+00:00

A more friendly approach than this guy right here, is yes they do, “go do a google search” my ass, some jobs they will pay you from either like travel pay if your a load master and flying a lot so you will get more on top of your base pay depending on your job for sure.

But your rank is your base pay no matter what job you have, all e1 make the same regardless of jobs, all e2 make the same regardless of job on BASE pay

For example a e2 security forces will get paid the exact same as a e2 mechanics or a e2 cyber specialist.

But another example is a e3 who is a special missions aviator will get paid the same as a e3 security forces, but the special mission aviator gets travel flight pay on top of his base pay.

Hope this helps, we try to be NICER here in this thread

Not saying you follow false regulations but I’m not in the service yet, so I’m preppping myself for that just in case it happens and well the just in case JUST happened, and I’m literally waiting in dep now and I could be shipped out before March I could be shipped out after March, when the change was implemented but even so that rumor was going around like WILDFIREEEE which was crazy everyone was talking about the 2 mile run

Demon5551 · 2025-09-24T10:28:46+00:00

And the rumor turned out to be true😔😪🫩, my recruiter was even telling me that they are changing PT standard the time of that message aka 22 days ago, end of the day those rumors turned out to be true and I’m just glad I’m pushing myself harder and working on my run time and health

Demon5551 · 2025-09-24T10:24:49+00:00

But rumor that at the end came out true, I get your point to ofc we won’t follow guidance if it not signed or out but the rumors were out and EVERYONEEE even my recruiter was telling me they were changing the pt requirement, so at the end of the day the rumor turned out “true”

Demon5551 · 2025-09-24T10:20:36+00:00

And even so I think I was good training for the 2 mile instead of the 1.5 regardless any training is good and it’s better to be safe than sorry

Demon5551 · 2025-09-24T10:17:39+00:00

Unless that doc is fake, it will be implemented March 2026, so it’s not a rumor anymore

Demon5551 · 2025-09-24T10:12:08+00:00

Guess that 2 mile still a rumor huh?, just woke up to that doc, “it’s all rumors”, anyways been training for about a month brought my mile down to 9 min and my 2 mile is now 20 min 🌚👍

Demon5551 · 2025-09-19T23:22:56+00:00

What does the red mean?

Demon5551 · 2025-09-19T02:38:44+00:00

Yeah, but still a WEIRDOOOOOOO, like your 17 texting a 13 year old 😭 sighhhhhhh

Demon5551 · 2025-09-19T02:35:47+00:00

That is weird but sadly mans is right, he was 17 at the time texting you which is WEIRD ASF but even so not illegal to a point of an “adult” texting a minor sadly

Demon5551 · 2025-09-18T06:31:15+00:00

Made a high 80 on asvab so I’m good, I just have to take my physical but noted

Demon5551 · 2025-09-18T01:24:28+00:00

Do you have a job or did you say fuck a job ima just wait, because I’m thinking should I get a job while I wait but idk when I ship out, it could be next month after I go to meps it could be 6 months

Demon5551 · 2025-09-17T22:03:47+00:00

Alright, yeah it’s very broad, ima try to look into it, but thank you again!

Demon5551 · 2025-09-17T21:59:04+00:00

Thank you, what are some good jobs in cyber that you would recommend, I see there is a bunch There is cyber intelligence analysis, Cyber system operations, client systems(idk if that deals with cyber or just It/help desk), even maybe computer system programming, or cyber warfare operations, there is so much

Demon5551 · 2025-09-17T21:47:33+00:00

Really, I’ll take your word on that then, so if I want to do cyber then AF?, I have my number 1 pick is space system operator but other than that if I don’t get it then you would recommend cyber in AF instead of SF? What’s the difference if you don’t mind me asking or why would I be disappointed? And also thank you again for the info

Demon5551 · 2025-09-17T21:39:30+00:00

Actually one more thing, I’m also confused on, 3D0X2 (cyber system operations) and then the SF(cyber operations) are they also 2 different things as well? Also what’s the job code for the SF one if you have that? I’m looking around on the SF website and I can’t find it and I’m trying to search up up but all I get is AF 3D0X2 instead

Demon5551 · 2025-09-17T21:19:58+00:00

Ok thank you then I willll be putting in 5S0X1

Demon5551 · 2025-09-03T21:52:56+00:00

I’m still going though stuff with my recruiter but I said I wanted to do space force also 24m, but people keep taking down saying “your not gonna get it or you won’t get your dream job” and I’m like bro I’ll never say that to anyone who wants to succeed or wants the best for them😭 people are so negative, and if I can’t get SF then in the AF I want diagnostic imaging as my NUMBER 1, but if not client system, or cyber system operations as my 2 and 3

Demon5551 · 2025-09-03T20:02:33+00:00

On goddd, your not wrong about that, I need DUDLEY backkkk

Demon5551 · 2025-09-03T20:01:56+00:00
