Ast the RAF police dog 🐶 Corporal Dylan Robbins introduced us to Ast, one of the military working dogs that form part of the Operational Capability Unit within the RAF. He told us how the dogs are trained, their uses within the unit, and where their strengths lie - all while Ast remained obediently sat like a good boy.

"Think of us as care in the air"✈️ Flight Lieutenant Tom Knight explained to us what the RAF Aeromed Squadron's role is on the C-17 at last week's RAF Air Space Combat Power Event at RAF Brize Norton. From treating cuts and wounds through to critical injuries, the Aeromed team of medically-trained personnel are a critical part of the RAF.

Meet StormShroud, the RAF's latest electronic warfare drone 👀 Sqn Ldr Stuart Quinn walked us around the new autonomous aircraft which is the first of a new family of Autonomous Collaborative Platforms. It's launched from the ground and will support RAF F-35B Lightning and Typhoon pilots by blinding enemy radars using high-tech signal jammers to increase operational effectiveness of crewed aircraft.

We just dropped the first episode of Access Granted, filmed in partnership with the @RoyalAirForce 🇬🇧. From sitting on the edge of the open ramp door, to blasting through the Mach Loop, to flying over the valleys of Scotland… this is easily one of the most surreal projects we’ve ever done. 🎬 Video link down below.
