The HAFGS in turn supervises the Hellenic Tactical Air Force Command, the Hellenic Air Force Support Command, and the Hellenic Air Force Training Command.

The Hellenic Air Force General Staff itself is headed by, the Chief of the HAFGS (Αρχηγός ΓΕΑ, Α/ΓΕΑ), assisted by a Deputy Chief (Υπαρχηγός ΓΕΑ), an Inspectorate-General (Γενική Επιθεώρηση), the Flight. And Ground Safety Centre (ΚΕΑΠΕ), the Legal Counsel Office. And the secretariat of the Supreme Air Force Council.

The Deputy Chief of the HAFGS oversees a staff office, "the secretariat of the HAFGS," the Medical Directorate, and the four branches that comprise the HAFGS itself:

• I Branch, "Operations," with five directorates and the national Operations Centre (ΚΕΠΙΧ)
• II Branch, Personnel, with five directorates
• III Branch, Support, with five directorates
• IV Branch, Policy and "Planning," with four directorates

The HAFGS further has direct supervision over a number of special-purpose units and formations, such as the Hellenic Air Force Academy, the 251 Air Force Hospital, and the Hellenic National Meteorological Service.
