Global Strike Command was activated in which year?

Global Strike Command was activated in 2009 as a significant development in the organization of the United States Air Force. This command was created to consolidate and provide a single entity responsible for the planning and execution of strategic deterrence operations, particularly focusing on the nation's nuclear capabilities. Before its establishment, these responsibilities were distributed among various commands, but the formation of Global Strike Command allowed for a more cohesive and direct oversight of nuclear operations and strategic long-range bombers. Its activation reflects the Air Force's commitment to maintaining a robust and effective nuclear deterrent force, which is crucial in ensuring national security.
