The Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) provides critical airlift capability to the Department of Defense (DOD) during both peace and wartime. One limitation placed upon CRAF carriers is the 60/40 Rule. This Rule states that commercial air carriers working on behalf of DOD can earn no more than 40% of their total revenue from DOD sources.
