The Royal Air Force's Strike Command was the military formation which controlled the majority of the United Kingdom's bomber and fighter aircraft from 1968 until 2007 when it merged with Personnel and Training Command to form the single Air Command. It latterly consisted of two formations - No. 1 Group RAF and No. 2 Group RAF. The last Commander-in-Chief was Air Chief Marshal Sir Joe French. ==History== Strike Command was formed on 30 April 1968 by the merger of Bomber Command and Fighter Command,〔(RAF Timeline 1960-1968 ) RAF〕 which became No. 1 Group and No. 11 Group respectively. Signals Command was absorbed on 1 January 1969,〔(The history of RAF Watton in detail for 1969 )〕 Coastal Command was absorbed on 28 November 1969〔Ashworth 1992, p. 222.〕 and Air Support Command (formerly Transport Command) was absorbed on 1 September 1972.〔(RAF Support Command Round-the-World Global Flight )〕 In 1975, the Command acquired a NATO title, Commander-in-Chief United Kingdom Air Forces - CINCUKAIR.〔(Commander UK Air Forces appointed ) Flight International, 17 April 1975〕 RAF Germany was absorbed as No. 2 (Bomber) Group on 1 April 1993.〔(RAF Timeline 1990-1999 ) RAF〕 The RAF's Process and Organisation Review concluded that Strike Command and Personnel and Training Command should be co-located at a single command headquarters: it was subsequently decided that both commands should be located at High Wycombe and in 2007 Strike Command and Personnel and Training Command were merged into a single command - Air Command.〔(RAF Command ) RAF〕
