Air Forces Monthly (AFM) is a military aviation magazine published by Key Publishing Ltd, who are based at Stamford in the English county of Lincolnshire in the United Kingdom.[1] It was established in 1988.[1] It provides news and analysis on military aviation, technology, and related topics.[2]

The Independent newspaper claims that "Air Forces Monthly is widely read in the MoD and in the defence industry, both in Britain and in the US".[3]

In 1997, an AFM report that a military aircraft crash during takeoff at Boscombe Down on 26 September 1994 involved a classified Aurora aircraft prompted denials from the Ministry of Defence and the United States Defense Department.[3][4]

Sister publications from Key Publishing include Air International, Air Enthusiast, Airliner World, and FlyPast.
