Strike Command

by John Parker

The two key components of air warfare conducted by the Royal Air Force virtually for the whole of the 20th century were the fighters and the bombers. By the 1960s these two roles had evolved into a single force known in the RAF by its current title, Strike Command. Colloquially, their pilots were known as "Top Guns". This title is full of personal tales of derring-do in just about every conflict in which Britain has been engaged.
