The Station
RAF St Mawgan in Cornwall is a No 22 (Training) Group Station that provides a platform for future and current operations in the south west. The Station is home to the Defence Survive, Evade, Resist, Extract (SERE) Training Organisation (known as DSTO), and supports the Remote Radar Head at Portreath – part of the air defence system for the UK.
All Services are represented at RAF St Mawgan, and DSTO trains around 5,000 personnel from around Defence each year to prepare them for operations overseas.
As a hub of activity in the south west, RAF St Mawgan supports or employs around 3,000 personnel across the region, including Regulars, Reserves, and RAF Air Cadets.
