No. 6 Squadron
RAAF Base Amberley, Australia
No. 6 Squadron is a Royal Australian Air Force training and bomber squadron.
The Squadron was first formed in 1917 in Yatesbury, England and currently operates F-111 aircraft from RAAF Base Amberley.
The Squadron served as a training unit based in England during the First World War and saw combat as a light bomber squadron in the Second World War.
No. 6 Squadron is currently responsible for training F-111 air crew and to maintain F-111 operational capability.
The General Dynamics F-111 is a medium-range interdictor and tactical strike aircraft that also fills the roles of strategic bomber, reconnaissance and electronic warfare in its various versions. Developed in the 1960s and first entering service in 1967, the United States Air Force (USAF) variants were officially retired by 1998. The remaining operator of the F-111 is the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF).
The F-111 pioneered several technologies for production military aircraft, including variable geometry wings, afterburning turbofan engines, and automated terrain following radar for low-level, high-speed flight. Its design was highly influential, particularly for Soviet engineers, and some of its advanced features have since become commonplace. In its inception, however, the F-111 suffered a variety of development problems, and several of its intended roles, such as naval interception, failed to materialize.
In 2007, the RAAF decided to replace its 21 F-111s in 2010 with 24 F/A-18F Super Hornets.
