About RAFv 7 Squadron

 

RAFv 7 Squadron operate Chinook HC2/2A/3 aircraft from RAFv Odiham.

 

The Royal Air Force Odiham contribution to the Support Helicopter Force comprises the three Chinook squadrons complete with supporting personnel and equipment. All units of the Chinook force are capable of rapid mobilisation for deployment to operational theatres ranging from the arctic to the desert. Once established in theatre, a large coordinated movement of troops and equipment is possible over moderate distances in a short time, possibly across unfriendly territory. These operations must be able to be carried out in most weather conditions, and of course, by day or by night.
