| |  Air/Sea Warfare Development Unit
|
In part to study the use of helicopters in Air Sea warfare roles, the ASWDU was formed on 14 Jan 1945 at Thorney Island, with the Hoverfly (and various fixed wing types) from the Coastal Command Development Unit. There was a resurgence of interest in early 1952 when the unit reformed at St Mawgan with the Sycamore, before its rotary wing element was incorporated into 22 Squadron in 1955, back at Thorney Island. (The remaining fixed wing unit disbanded on 1 Apr 1970 at Ballykelly).  |
