No. 78 Squadron of the Royal Air Force operates two Westland Sea King HAR.3s and, until 2006 one Chinook HC.2, from RAF Mount Pleasant, Falkland Islands. The Squadron reformed on May 22 1986 and has operated in the same role since then. Originally operating the Chinook HC.1, these were replaced with HC.2s. The Chinook HC.2, equivalent to the US Army CH-47D standard, began to enter RAF service in 1993. 78 Squadron is the only RAF squadron permanently based in the Falkland Islands. The four Tornado F3s which provide air defence are operated by No. 1435 Flight. No. 1312 Flight operates a single Vickers VC10 and one C-130K Hercules.
