25(F) Sqn Re-forms on Hawk T2

摘要

The RAF's 25(Fighter) Squadron re-formed at RAF Valley on September 8 as a second Hawk T2 unit. It is providing the first phase of advanced fast jet training for RAF and Royal Navy pilots. It will work alongside IV(Army Co-operation) Squadron. To better reflect the long and distinguished wartime records and fighting ethos of both units the Fighter and Army Co-operation historic squadron designators have been re-instated. Increased pilot need for the Typhoon and Lightning led to the new unit being required.
