RAAF Command (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

RAAF Command was the main operational arm of the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) during World War II. The command was formed in September 1942 and by April 1943 comprised 27 squadrons, including units from the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States, as well as Australia. Coming under the operational authority of Allied Air Forces Headquarters in the South West Pacific Area, RAAF Command exercised control of its units through geographically based area commands in Australia and, later, New Guinea, as well as large mobile formations including the Australian First Tactical Air Force. The command reached a strength of 41 squadrons in October 1944. From the time of its establishment, until its disbandment in September 1945, it was led by Air Vice Marshal Bill Bostock.

dbo:abstract Le RAAF Command est la principale formation opérationnelle de la Force aérienne royale australienne (Royal Australian Air Force, RAAF), chargée de la défense du pays et des intérêts australiens contre les offensives aériennes japonaises dans la région ouest de l'océan Pacifique sud. Il est créé en septembre 1942. En avril 1943, il comprend 27 escadrons et inclut des unités des Pays-Bas, du Royaume-Uni et des États-Unis en plus des unités australiennes. Dépendant de l'autorité opérationnelle du commandement des forces aériennes alliées dans le Pacifique Sud-Ouest, le RAAF Command exerce un contrôle de ses unités pour la zone de l'Australie et, plus tard, pour le Territoire de Nouvelle-Guinée. Il contrôle également de grandes formations mobiles tel que l'Australian First Tactical Air Force. Le RAAF Command atteint un effectif de 41 escadrons en octobre 1944. De sa création, jusqu'à sa dissolution en septembre 1945, il est dirigé par le Air Vice Marshal William Bostock.
