The RAF Third Tactical Air Force (Third TAF), which was formed in South Asia in December 1943, was one of three tactical air forces formed by the Royal Air Force (RAF) during the Second World War. It was made up of squadrons and personnel from the RAF, Indian Air Force (IAF) and the air forces of other Commonwealth countries. Third TAF was formed shortly after the establishment of South East Asia Command to provide close air support to the Fourteenth Army. The Third TAF had two commanders, Air Marshal John Baldwin up until 15 August 1944, and then Air Marshal Sir Alec Coryton.

rdfs:comment	英國皇家空軍第3戰術航空軍於1943年12月在東南亞司令部建立後不久在南亞成立，是英國皇家空軍在第二次世界大戰期間組建的三支之一。目的是為提供密接空中支援。部隊由來自RAF、英屬印度輔助空軍和其他英聯邦國家的空軍中隊和人員組成。部隊於1943年12月19日成立初時被命名為駐緬甸戰術航空軍，12月28日更名為第3戰術航空軍。連同美國第十航空軍的一部分，隸屬於同月成立的。隨著英國遠東空軍部隊的組建，盟軍認為，英軍終於可以在緬甸戰役中對日軍發動攻勢。1944年初，在阿拉干開始發動全面進攻，但英軍這一波進攻被日軍發動的攻擊阻斷。儘管盟軍獲得決定性的勝利，但日軍把攻擊重點轉移到了緬甸中部。第3戰術航空軍在和英帕爾戰役中為提供了可靠的空中支援，經常在極低空的範圍對被圍困的日軍進行掃射和轟炸。日軍在阿薩姆邦被和擊敗後，印度洋和南亞的雨季干擾了盟軍的反攻計劃。第3戰術航空軍在被強制減少行動期間仍支援第14軍團向日軍戰線推進。然而，到1944年底英軍司令部作出的整頓改變縮短了第3戰術航空軍的壽命。12月4日被重組為皇家空軍駐孟加拉和緬甸總部。第3戰術航空軍經歷兩任指揮官，空軍中將任期直到1944年8月15日，然後是空軍中將接任。 (zh) The RAF Third Tactical Air Force (Third TAF), which was formed in South Asia in December 1943, was one of three tactical air forces formed by the Royal Air Force (RAF) during the Second World War.
