In only the last two years, airmen have witnessed previously unthinkable improvements, many of which have centered on the convenience of women: longer haircuts for women, the creation of a maternity flying suit, and the invention of wrap-style clothing for pregnant airmen. Even parts of the Space Force’s new formal outfits will be unisex. One of the main reasons the Air Force has been at the forefront of uniform adjustments for women is that it has the highest number of female members in the ranks, at 21%. While the Air Force’s uniform possibilities are being refined, the Space Force has had to start from the beginning. The physical training outfit for the Space Force, which consists of a black tracksuit, shorts, and a gray T-shirt, has been authorized and is on its way to the Defense Logistics Agency.
