The published Regular Force pilot rates are monthly amounts effective April 1, 2025, and vary by rank and pay increment. They offer a useful baseline for 2026, but do not establish a fighter pilot’s confirmed 2026 total compensation or take-home pay.
Published pay rates for CAF pilots
The Department of National Defence’s Regular Force pay table lists pilot rates by rank and increment. The figures below are Canadian dollars per month, effective April 1, 2025. The table covers pilots generally, not a fighter-pilot-only pay scale.
| Rank | Basic monthly pay | Monthly pay across listed increments | Table effective date |
|---|---|---|---|
| Captain | $8,861 | $9,196–$17,723 across increments 1–20 | April 1, 2025 |
| Major | $14,644 | $14,938–$18,357 across increments 1–11 | April 1, 2025 |
| Lieutenant-Colonel | $18,172 | $18,354–$18,990 across increments 1–5 | April 1, 2025 |
See the official Regular Force pilot pay table for the full increment-by-increment amounts. A fighter pilot’s rank and increment matter: the table does not say that all pilots hold the same rank or receive the same rate.
Why a fighter pilot’s 2026 pay cannot be reduced to one number
CAF pay depends on factors including rank, occupation group, experience, service class and entry plan. Some members may also qualify for special military differential pay. Those rules mean a headline figure based on one rank or increment would not describe every RCAF fighter pilot.

The official table is dated April 1, 2025. Although the title question concerns 2026, that date should not be silently changed: the table is a transparent published baseline, not a confirmed 2026 fighter-pilot salary schedule. The available official figures do not establish one verified 2026 gross-pay or net-pay total for a fighter pilot.
How 2025–2026 compensation changes fit in
Government announcements describe a military-factor adjustment and other compensation measures. One official disclosure lists a 13% adjustment for many members, including general service and pilot officers below Colonel, retroactive to April 1, 2025. The announcement does not, by itself, confirm whether that adjustment should be added to the rates displayed in the pay table. Do not mechanically add 13% to a table figure without an official current calculation showing how the rates and adjustment interact.

The February 2026 compensation update says Aircrew Allowance remains unchanged in the phase-three measures. Aircrew Allowance is a separate allowance governed by policy; the published material cited here does not establish the amount a particular fighter pilot qualifies to receive. It should not be folded into base monthly pay as though it were universal.
Military Service Pay is separate from monthly pilot pay
A 2026 announcement describes Military Service Pay as an annual pensionable lump sum for eligible Regular Force and Class C members. Its stated annual levels are:
