RAF Brampton Wyton Henlow is a former Royal Air Force unit covering three distinct sites in Cambridgeshire and Bedfordshire. The three sites, separately known as RAF Brampton, RAF Wyton and RAF Henlow, housed a number of flying training, intelligence, security and other RAF support organisations. On 2 April 2012 the unit was disbanded with RAF Brampton being renamed Brampton Camp RAF Wyton.[1]
History
In 2001, the three RAF stations were brought together under the one umbrella with one station commander.[2] RAF Stanbridge was brought into the agreement too, but was not formally noted in the tri-base name.[3] At that time, RAF Brampton Wyton Henlow represented the largest RAF base in terms of real estate and personnel.[4]
