OF-7 stands for NATO officer grade 7, a military pay grade abbreviation.
Two-star officers in allied armed forces: US major generals and rear admirals (upper half), British major generals, Royal Navy rear admirals and RAF air vice-marshals. Division commanders typically hold this grade.
Example: The two-star OF-7 commander of the multinational division is a German major general.
Usage notes
OF-7 is the usual level for division command. Each nation's two-star title differs, and the RAF's air vice-marshal is often misunderstood as a deputy marshal rather than a two-star rank.
