- Air Training Command (ATC) is a former United States Air Force (USAF) Major Command designation. It was headquartered at Randolph Air Force Base, Texas, but was initially formed at Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana. It was re-designated as Air Education and Training Command (AETC) following a merger with Air University (AU) on 1 July 1993. ATC was organized on 1 July 1946 as a re-designation of Army Air Forces Training Command (AAFTC) as part of the re-organization of the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) after World War II. For nearly 50 years, ATC was the primary training organization of the United States Air Force from its inception as an independent service in September 1947. It provided pilot and aircrew training; technical training, and enlisted and officer basic training. At the end of the Cold War, it was merged with Air University (AU) in July 1993 as part of a major top-to-bottom reorganization of the USAF. Personnel, equipment and resources of both organizations were re-designated as Air Education and Training Command (AETC), which assumed the mission of both organizations, but retained AU as a subordinate organization within AETC.

- 航空訓練軍団(こうくうくんれんぐんだん Air Training Command,ATC)はかつてアメリカ空軍に存在した組織。主要軍団レベルの組織であり、司令部はテキサス州所在。空軍の人員に対する教育・訓練を目的としている。教育・訓練の中でも飛行訓練が主任務であり、複数の空軍基地で練習機を用いて飛行訓練を実施していた。1993年にアメリカ空軍大学と統合され、航空教育・訓練軍団(Air Education and Training Command)となった。 第二次世界大戦中の1942年7月1日にアメリカ陸軍航空軍の訓練部隊として航空隊飛行訓練軍団(Air Corps Flying Training Command)が設立されたのが前身である。戦時中には規模が急拡大し、飛行訓練のみでも1943年時点で22個航空団を要していた。1946年に航空訓練軍団(ATC)に改編されている。 (ja)
