Yes. Driving a vehicle without proper endorsement is the same as driving with no license at all.

However, with US law, vehicles which do not fall into the requirements for the operator to possess a CDL do not require any special permissions to operate air brake equipped vehicles. Motor homes, farm use vehicles, firefighting equipment, military equipment (operated by military personnel in the course of their duties), and vehicles under 26,000 lbs. GVWR (so long as they are not carrying hazardous materials or more than 15 persons), do not require a CDL, and thus do not require any special permissions to use air brakes (on a US licence, there is no air brake endorsement - only a restriction placed on CDL licences if you do not meet the testing requirements).
