The Royal Air Force (RAF) is the aerial warfare service branch of the British

Armed Forces. Formed toward the end of theFirst World War on 1 April 1918,
[2]
it
is the oldest independent air force in the world.
[3]
Following victory over
the Central Powers in 1918 the RAF emerged at the time the largest air force
in the world.
[4]
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 Governments foreign policy objectives
particularly in promoting international peace and security."

The Indian Air Force was established in British India as an auxiliary air force
[1]
of
the Royal Air Force with the enactment of the Indian Air Force Act 1932 on 8
October that year
[2][3]
and adopted the Royal Air Force uniforms, badges, brevets
and insignia.
[4]
On 1 April 1933, the IAF commissioned its first squadron, No.1
Squadron, with four Westland Wapiti biplanes and five Indian pilots. The Indian
pilots were led byRAF Commanding officer Flight Lieutenant (later Air Vice
Marshal) Cecil Bouchier
