The Royal Air Force (RAF) is the United Kingdom's aerial warfare force. 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 as, 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.
The RAF's mission is to support the objectives of the British Ministry of Defence (MoD), which are to "provide the capabilities needed: to ensure the security and defence of the United Kingdom and overseas territories, including against terrorism; to support the Government’s foreign policy objectives particularly in promoting international peace and security." The RAF describe its mission statement as "... [to provide] An agile, adaptable and capable Air Force that, person for person, is second to none, and that makes a decisive air power contribution in support of the UK Defence Mission." The mission statement is supported by the RAF's definition of air power, which guides its strategy. Air power is defined as: "The ability to project power from the air and space to influence the behaviour of people or the course of events."

Great video of US Air Force F-15 aircraft taking off from Royal air force base. The United States Air Force (USAF) is the aerial warfare service branch of the United States Armed Forces. ARLINGTON, Va. - The Air National Guard will unveil an upgrade to the radar system for its F-15 Eagle fighter aircraft today, which will give it greater capabilities while reducing maintenance costs. The new radar system—the APG-63(v)3 Active Electronically Scanned Array—replaces the older mechanically controlled devices currently in the aircraft. "When the F-15 was first designed and made, the radar in it was world class, the best at the time, but its 1970s technology," said Air Force Maj. Dave Slaydon, chief of F-15 requirements for the Air National Guard. "It's a mechanically scanned array, meaning i...

als wirnoch klenine scheisser warren,
da wussten wir nicht viel,
doch wir haben schon gern r.a.f.
und polizei gespielt.
ich wollte nie ein bulle sein,
denn bullen sind nurdreck!
ich war viel lieber terrorist
und bombte alles weg.
und hab ich in die schulbank einen raf-stern reingekratzt,
ist unser fettes rektorschewin vor wut dann fast geplatzt.
rote armee franktion-ihr wart ein geiler haufen,
rote armee franktion-mit euch ist was gelaufen,
rote armee franktion-ich fand euch immer spitze,
leider war ich noch zu klein,
um bereits bei euch dabei zu sein,
doch mein herz schlug damals schon fuer die rote armee fraktion.
die raf hat leider nur versaeumt,
es zu erklaeren, wovon sie traeumt,
die theorie war intellektuell und kompliziertder kleine mann,
fuer den sie kaempfte,
hatte das nicht ganz kapiert,
dann konnte sie der staat ganz leicht alsvolksfeind isolieren.
die bonzen haben sich eingeschissen,
hat man raf gesagt,
sie war ihr albtraum und der hat sie jede nacht gejact rote aree franktion-ir wart...
fuer die rote-armee franktion die r.a.f.-bombe!
