The Royal air Force (RAF), which was founded at the close of World war One, is the air and space force of the United Kingdom. It became the biggest aviation force in the world in 1918. It was in charge of the allied strategic bombing campaign during World war II. In the UK, the RAF currently maintains a fleet of active aircraft of various kinds. Given the crucial role the RAF played in both world wars, the fact that its planes stopped at hyderabad airport for refuelling demonstrates the cooperation between these two countries.
