RNAS Yeovilton International Air Day has a sensational line-up ready for Saturday 7 July but we can now confirm details of two spectacular Role Demonstrations provided by the resident Commando Helicopter Force and the Wildcat Maritime Force.<\/p>\n
There will be an explosive, pyrotechnic-filled role demo from the Commando Helicopter Force (CHF) Merlin and Wildcat helicopters. Headquartered at RNAS Yeovilton, CHF comprises of three squadrons \u2013 845 NAS and 846 NAS, currently flying Merlin HC3\/3As but transitioning to upgraded HC4s, and 847 NAS, equipped with the Wildcat AH1. These two helicopter types are at the forefront of amphibious and land-based Royal Marines operations worldwide and they\u2019ll both be in action with troops on board at Air Day. Joining them are Hawk T1s from 736 NAS, based at RNAS Culdrose: a welcome return to Air Day\u2019s flying programme for the Royal Navy\u2019s \u2018Maritime Aggressors\u2019.<\/p>\n
From the Wildcat Maritime Force (WMF), and unique to Air Day, will be a solo Wildcat HMA2 display packed full of spectacular flares. The Fleet Air Arm\u2019s new multi-mission maritime helicopter, operated by the WMF\u2019s two squadrons \u2013 815 and 825 NAS, will be put through its paces in this exciting role demonstration. A pair of Wildcats will also take part in a flypast with the Royal Navy\u2019s Sea King ASaC7 as it bows out of service and three Wildcats will be available to view up close on static display.<\/p>\n
Prepare for a frontline battlefield experience like no other \u2013 cameras at the ready!<\/p>\n
