Abbreviation for Air Force Base, a military installation where the United States Air Force operates aircraft and personnel.
Modern military acronym created during the 20th century as the U.S. Air Force expanded; 'AFB' combines initials for Air Force Base.
AFB is military shorthand that became so common it's used even by civilians near military installations—places like Wright-Patterson AFB or Nellis AFB are small cities with their own economies.
