THE DEFENCE MISSION

The purpose of the Ministry of Defence, and the Armed Forces, is to defend the United Kingdom, and Overseas Territories, our people and interests, and to act as a force for good by strengthening international peace and security.

THE ROYAL AIR FORCE VISION

Our vision is an aspiration for the future state of the Royal Air Force, not a statement of where we are now; it is a declaration of the kind of organisation we intend to be.

We want to see:

An Air Force that, person for person and pound

for pound, is second to none.

An Air Force that:

• Is trained and equipped to generate air power as a vital contribution to the security of the United Kingdom and as a force for good in the world.

• Is proud of its heritage but modern and flexible.

• Fosters professionalism and team spirit founded on commitment and self-discipline.

• Offers opportunity to all, and provides a rewarding career and skills for life.
