The air force is no longer downsizing. The air force is trading planes for people. Less F-22s and more Airmen. But yes air force enlisted promotion rates are well behind other branches. However, becoming an Air Force Officer is a great choice. You don't have to deal with promotion testing you will get promoted at your 2 year point then again at your 4 year point. And those are big pay raises. AFROTC is the best way to get in for the officer route. OTS is much harder to get into. They only take the top 20% of applications. And yes technical degrees are in demand for the air force.
