You can't "add" air brakes, the vehicle either has them or doesn't. But they don't require a significantly different effort than any other brakes.
Sorry, Brian, I hate to disagree slightly, but Wells-Engberg makes a pneumatic hand control which uses a compressor to activate air cylinders to depress the accelerator and brake pedals proportionally to the level of effort applied. (We have this on my wife's Astro van, using a set of pedal switches originally designed for use by little people. It's very delicate.
But that is not air brakes in the sense of what a RVer thinks of as air brakes. That would be more like air over hydraulic brakes.
