BASED AT
WHAT WE DO
The Squadron consists mostly of communications engineers and logistics specialists to enable the rapid deployment of 1 ISR Wing personnel and bespoke IT equipment on operations in the UK and overseas. It also provides engineering advice and expertise on new and future ISR capabilities and exploitation systems.
The Squadron comprises 2 Flights: 54 Signals Unit Engineering Flight and ISR Engineering Flight.
54 Signals Unit Engineering Flight operates from two sites (RAF Waddington and RAF Digby) and broadly supports both 51 Squadron and 54 Signals Unit pre and post-missions.
Support includes the maintenance of equipment and data links to enable time critical data PED. ISR Engineering Flight is based at RAF Waddington and RAF Marham in support of 2 ISR Squadron and has personnel routinely detached to provide engineering support on operations.
