List of Royal Air Force groups
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This list of Royal Air Force groups is an overview of all groups, current and former, of the Royal Air Force (RAF). An air force group is a high-level controlling organisational formation, subordinate only to command level. Individual groups within the Royal Air Force have overall command and responsibility for major operational tasks of the RAF; for example: combat, combat support, training and administration.
As of 2023[update], there are only five groups in the Royal Air Force which are currently active; four conventional static groups, and a mobile expeditionary group; namely: No. 1 Group (1 Gp), No. 2 Group (2 Gp), No. 11 Group (11 Gp), No. 22 Group (22 Gp), along with No. 83 Expeditionary Air Group (83 EAG).[1] Those groups which are currently active are highlighted in bold in the table below.
