Британские военные авиационные базы, бывшие станции Королевских ВВС
British military aviation bases
former RAF stations
Этот список станций Королевских ВВС (RAF) представляет собой обзор всех действующих станций Королевских ВВС по всей территории Соединенного Королевства и за рубежом. В него входят авиабазы боевого и учебного назначения, станции обеспечения, административные и учебные станции без летной деятельности, беспилотные аэродромы, используемые для обучения, станции сбора разведывательной информации и сеть радаров раннего предупреждения. Список также включает станции Королевских ВВС, занятые вооруженными силами США, бывшие станции Королевских ВВС, которые в настоящее время эксплуатируются компанией QinetiQ по поручению Министерства обороны (MOD), и полигоны для воздушных стрельб, управляемые Министерством обороны. За рубежом Королевские ВВС используют аэродромы на четырех постоянных совместных операционных базах (PJOB), расположенных на Британских заморских территориях.
This list of Royal Air Force stations is an overview of all current stations of the Royal Air Force (RAF) throughout the United Kingdom and overseas. This includes front line and training airbases, support, administrative and training stations with no flying activity, unmanned airfields used for training, intelligence gathering stations and an early warning radar network. The list also includes RAF stations occupied by the United States Visiting Forces, former RAF stations now operated by defence contractor QinetiQ on behalf the Ministry of Defence (MOD), and air weapons ranges operated by the MOD. Overseas, the RAF operates airfields at four Permanent Joint Operating Bases (PJOBs) which are located in British Overseas Territories.
Министерство обороны
Несколько бывших аэродромов Королевских ВВС все еще принадлежат Министерству обороны (MOD) и эксплуатируются оборонным подрядчиком QinetiQ для проведения испытаний и оценки. Основным объектом является MOD Boscombe Down в Уилтшире, где по-прежнему сохраняется значительное присутствие Королевских ВВС. Небольшое число бывших аэродромов Королевских ВВС остается в собственности Министерства обороны, несмотря на то, что они используются Королевскими ВВС в качестве запасных посадочных площадок (RLG), для полетов добровольческих планеристских эскадрилий или в других учебных целях. Они классифицируются как аэродромы и, как правило, не обслуживаются постоянным персоналом.
Several former RAF stations are still owned by the Ministry of Defence (MOD), and are operated by defence contractor QinetiQ in the test and evaluation role. The main facility is MOD Boscombe Down in Wiltshire, which still has a significant RAF presence. A small number of former RAF stations remain in MOD ownership even though they are used by the RAF in the relief landing ground (RLG) role, flying by Volunteer Gliding Squadrons or other training purposes. They are described as airfields and are typically unmanned.

Станции RAF, управляемые Посещающими силами Соединенных Штатов
По приглашению правительства Великобритании, Соединенные Штаты размещают военные силы (известные как американские посещающие силы) на территории Соединенного Королевства на постоянной основе со времен Второй мировой войны. Соглашение НАТО о статусе сил 1951 года и Закон о посещающих силах 1952 года, а также другие двусторонние соглашения, устанавливают правовой статус американских посещающих сил в Великобритании. Несколько военных объектов в Англии предоставляются для нужд этих сил. На основных объектах присутствуют командиры Королевских ВВС, обычно ранга руководителя эскадрильи, в то время как американские полковники обычно командуют американским персоналом на каждой станции. Задача командира Королевских ВВС – взаимодействовать с командиром американской базы и выступать в качестве руководителя учреждения для сотрудников Министерства обороны. Использование британских баз для проведения боевых операций Соединенными Штатами является совместным решением обоих правительств. 501-е крыло боевой поддержки ВВС США управляет и обеспечивает поддержку операций на авиабазах RAF Alconbury, RAF Croughton, RAF Fairford, RAF Menwith Hill, RAF Molesworth и RAF Welford, в то время как RAF Lakenheath и RAF Mildenhall управляются соответствующими крыльями-хозяевами.
At the invitation of the UK Government, the United States has had military forces (known as US Visiting Forces) permanently stationed in the United Kingdom since the Second World War. The 1951 NATO Status of Forces Agreement and the Visiting Forces Act 1952, along with other bilateral acts, establishes the legal status of the USVF in the UK. Several military sites within England are made available for the USVF's purposes. A Royal Air Force commander is present at the main USVF sites, and is normally of the rank of Squadron Leader, whereas a US Colonel will normally command US personnel at each station. The role of the RAF commander is to liaise with the US base commander, and act as head of establishment for Ministry of Defence employees. The use of UK bases for combat operations by the United States is a joint decision by both governments. The United States Air Force (USAF) 501st Combat Support Wing manages and supports operations at RAF Alconbury, RAF Croughton, RAF Fairford, RAF Menwith Hill, RAF Molesworth, and RAF Welford, whereas RAF Lakenheath and RAF Mildenhall are managed by their respective host wings. nameconstituent countrycountyunits and purposeRAF AlconburyEnglandCambridgeshireNon flying station home to the USAF 423rd Air Base Group (part of the 501st Combat Support Wing) which provides services and accommodation to support operations at RAF Molesworth and the Joint Warfare Centre, Stavanger in Norway.

At the invitation of the UK Government, the United States has had military forces (known as US Visiting Forces) permanently stationed in the United Kingdom since the Second World War. The 1951 NATO Status of Forces Agreement and the Visiting Forces Act 1952, along with other bilateral acts, establishes the legal status of the USVF in the UK. Several military sites within England are made available for the USVF's purposes. A Royal Air Force commander is present at the main USVF sites, and is normally of the rank of Squadron Leader, whereas a US Colonel will normally command US personnel at each station. The role of the RAF commander is to liaise with the US base commander, and act as head of establishment for Ministry of Defence employees. The use of UK bases for combat operations by the United States is a joint decision by both governments. The United States Air Force (USAF) 501st Combat Support Wing manages and supports operations at RAF Alconbury, RAF Croughton, RAF Fairford, RAF Menwith Hill, RAF Molesworth, and RAF Welford, whereas RAF Lakenheath and RAF Mildenhall are managed by their respective host wings. nameconstituent countrycountyunits and purposeRAF AlconburyEnglandCambridgeshireNon flying station home to the USAF 423rd Air Base Group (part of the 501st Combat Support Wing) which provides services and accommodation to support operations at RAF Molesworth and the Joint Warfare Centre, Stavanger in Norway.

Полигоны для воздушного оружия (AWR) в Соединенном Королевстве, ранее эксплуатировавшиеся Королевскими ВВС, находятся в ведении подразделения "Обслуживание" (SD) в составе Организации оборонной инфраструктуры (DIO). В 2010 году DIO заключила трехлетний контракт с QinetiQ на управление полигонами, но в 2014 году эта функция перешла к Landmarc Support Services (часть Interserve) в рамках контракта, охватывающего более широкий комплекс учебно-тренировочной базы Министерства обороны.

Постоянные совместные оперативные базы
Соединенное Королевство управляет постоянными совместными оперативными базами (PJOB) в четырех британских заморских территориях, а именно на острове Вознесения, в суверенных базах Акротири и Декелия на Кипре, на Фолклендских (Мальвинских) островах и в Гибралтаре. Эти PJOB обеспечивают физическую оборону и поддержание суверенитета этих британских заморских территорий, а также позволяют Великобритании осуществлять экспедиционные военные операции. Контроль и общее руководство PJOB осуществляет директор заморских баз, входящий в состав Стратегического командования. В 2024 году была открыта Donnelly Lines – постоянная военная база Великобритании, расположенная на авиабазе в Объединенных Арабских Эмиратах (ОАЭ).
The United Kingdom operates Permanent Joint Operating Bases (PJOBs) in four British Overseas Territories, namely Ascension Island, the Sovereign Base Areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia in Cyprus, the Falkland Islands and Gibraltar. The PJOBs contribute to the physical defence and maintenance of sovereignty of these British Overseas Territories and enable the UK to conduct expeditionary military operations. The Director of Overseas Bases, Strategic Command, controls and oversees the PJOBs. Donnelly Lines, a permanent UK military facility at a United Arab Emirates (UAE) air base was opened in 2024.
