The world’s oldest Air Force ” RAF
The Royal Air Force, the United Kingdom’s Royal Air Force, became independent from the British Army in April 1918 and has the longest history of any air force in the world. It is particularly famous for its success in the Battle of Dunkirk, where it saved the Anglo-French Allied Forces from the Germans, and has fascinated the world with its strength. His current mission is to guarantee and defend the United Kingdom and its overseas territories, and to achieve the objectives of the Ministry of Defense. Commenting on this centennial project, Royal Air Force Mike Wigston said.
By aligning the RAF with an iconic brand, we felt it was a great opportunity to celebrate 100 years of the RAF, past and present, and to inspire the next generation. We felt this was a great opportunity to celebrate our 100-year past and present and inspire the next generation.”
