Kraljevsko ratno zrakoplovstvo (The Royal Air Force RAF) su zračna grana
britanskih oružanih snaga. Formirani su krajem Prvog svjetskog rata
(01.04.1918.) i smatraju se najstarijim, nezavisnim zračnim snagama u
svijetu. Nakon pobjede nad Centralnim silama 1918. godine iz rata izlaze
kao najveće zrakoplovstvo toga doba. Od svojeg osnivanja RAF je igrao
značajnu ulogu u britanskoj ratnoj historiji, pogotovo u Drugom
svjetskom ratu, sa svojim najznačajnim bitkama, čuvenom „Bitkom za
Britaniju“. |

The Royal Air Force (RAF) is the aerial warfare service branch of the
British Armed Forces. Formed toward the end of the First World War on 1
April 1918, it is the oldest independent air force in the world.
Following victory over the Central Powers in 1918 the RAF emerged – at
the time – the largest air force in the world. Since its formation, the
RAF has taken a significant role in British military history, in
particular, playing a large part in the Second World War where it fought
its most famous campaign, the Battle of Britain. |

godine, i formiranja 38 Group Support Unit, bazirane na RAF Odiham. Tada
se brzo shvatilo da komunikacije igraju veliku ulogu u potpornim
operacijama. Godine 1965. u RAF-u Tangmere osnovana je Jedinica za
taktičke veze br. 50, a kako je rasla, preimenovana je 1967. u Krilo za
taktičke veze 38 grupe, a zatim ponovno 1969. u svoj sadašnji naziv,
Krilo za taktičke komunikacije. |
|
Moto TCW-a je "Ubique Loquimur" što u prijevodu znači "Govorimo posvuda"
što je preuzeto iz značke Krila taktičkih komunikacija 38. Grupe (38
Group Tactical Communications Wing). Do spajanja s 90 jedinicom veze
2006., pripadnike TCW-a moglo se razlikovati po oba lista s činovima,
izvezenim slovima 'TCW' i znački Krila (Wing) (golub u stijeni s
munjom). Nakon spajanja, potonji je zamijenjen s 90 Signalnom jedinicom. |

TCW
provides communications facilities to deployed units of the RAF. No 1,
2, 3 and 4 Field Communications (FC) Sqns - providing deployed networks
and information systems in a range of settings and locations. 5 Sqn
provides support to the FC Sqns, through calibration and testing of
equipment. TCW's roots can be traced back to 1962, and the forming of 38
Group Support Unit, based at RAF Odiham. It was then quickly realised
that communications played a large part in supporting operations. In
1965 No. 50 Tactical Signals Unit was formed at RAF Tangmere and as it
grew in size was renamed, in 1967 to 38 Group Tactical Signals Wing then
again in 1969 to its current name, Tactical Communications Wing.
|
|
TCW's motto is "Ubique Loquimur" which translates to "We Speak
Everywhere" which was taken from No. 38 Group Tactical Communications
Wing badge. Until the amalgamation with 90 Signals Unit in 2006, TCW
personnel could be distinguished by both their rank slides, embroidered
with the letters 'TCW' and the Wing badge (the rock dove with lightning
bolt). Upon amalgamation, the latter was replaced with that of 90
Signals Unit. |

Kraljevska regimenta zračnih snaga (Royal Air Force Regiment) je dio
zrakoplovstva i djeluju kao odbrambene snage na aerodromima. Obučeni su
i opremljeni i za ABHO zaštitu i njihovi instruktori su zaduženi i za
obuku svog ostalog RAF-ovog personala u osnovnoj zaštiti baza, ABHO
zaštiti, prvoj pomoći, rukovanju oružjem itd. Unutar RAF-a (a i šire) su
poznati kao Regimenta ('The Regiment'), „Gorski majmuni“ ('Rock Apes')
ili samo „Kamenjari“ ('Rocks'). Pripadnici regimente su obučeni za
uspješno sprečavanje neprijateljskih snaga na aerodrome, na smanjenje
štete nakon uspješnog napada i za osiguranje uvjeta za nastavak rada
aerodroma nakon napada. Pripadnici RAF regimenete koriste agresivne
odbrambene taktike gdje aktivno traže moguće infiltratore u širkom reonu
oko aerodroma. |

The Royal Air Force Regiment (RAF Regt) is part of the Royal Air Force
and functions as a specialist airfield defence corps founded by Royal
Warrant in 1942. The RAF Regiment is trained in CBRN (Chemical,
Biological, Radiological and Nuclear) defence and equipped with advanced
vehicles and detection measures. RAF Regiment instructors are
responsible for training all Royal Air Force personnel in basic Force
Protection, such as first aid, weapon handling, and CBRN skills. The
regiment and its members are known within the RAF as 'The Regiment',
'Rock Apes' or 'Rocks'. Its members are trained and equipped to prevent
a successful enemy attack in the first instance; minimise the damage
caused by a successful attack; and ensure that air operations can
continue without delay in the aftermath of an attack. RAF Regiment
squadrons use aggressive defence tactics whereby they actively seek out
infiltrators in a large area surrounding airfields. |

Policija Kraljevske Avijacije (The Royal Air Force Police R.A.F.P.) je grana

je formiran 01. 04. 1918. ujedinjenjem Kraljevskog letačkog korpusa i
Avio službe Kraljevske mornarice. Zaduženi su za sigurnost cijelog
osoblja RAF-a, kao što to čine i pripadnici VP u Mornarici i KoV-u.
Krajem 1950, NjKV Kralj George VI odobrava znak sa Grifonom i moto „Fiat
justitia“. Pripadnici RAFP su služili u 66 zemalja diljem svijeta, a i
dalje ih se može vidjeti širom kugle zemaljske. Glavni štab im je u RAF
Honington-u, gdje je i smještena RAF-ova regimenta. |

The Royal Air Force Police (RAFP) is the service police branch of the
Royal Air Force, headed by the Provost Marshal of the Royal Air Force.
It was formed on 1 April 1918, when the RAF was formed by the merger of
the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Naval Air Service. It is
responsible for the policing and security of all service personnel, much
like their Royal Navy or British Army counterparts. In January 1947, the
RAF Provost Branch became a Specialist Branch within the RAF. In
December 1950, His Majesty King George VI, approved the Griffin Badge
and Motto ‘Fiat Justitia'. By 2009, the RAFP had, since 1918, served in
66 countries around the globe and today deploy throughout the world to
support RAF and UK defence missions. The Headquarters of the RAF Police
is at RAF Honington alongside the RAF Regiment. |
