Die Luftwaffe der Wehrmacht war von 1935 bis 1945 neben dem Heer und der Kriegsmarine eine der drei Teilstreitkräfte im nationalsozialistischen Deutschen Reich. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg war sie Luftstreit- und Flugabwehrkraft, daneben stellte sie auch Bodenstreitkräfte (Luftwaffen-Felddivisionen, Fallschirmjäger-Divisionen und Fallschirm-Panzerkorps Hermann Göring) zur Unterstützung des Heeres auf.
