United Kingdom / England / Waddington /
 military, RAF - Royal Air Force

Established in October 1993, the AWC serves RAF Air Command (Air Comd) by developing and implementing operational-level and tactical-level air doctrine. Additionally, the AWC is home to the tri-service Defence Electronic Warfare Centre (DEWC) which contributes to the operational capability of the three British armed forces by providing Electronic Warfare (EW) support directly to the Permanent Joint Headquarters (PJHQ) in Northwood and to various operational units.

The AWC Mission is to contribute to the military capability of Air Comd by developing and implementing operational and tactical doctrine and providing essential and timely integrated mission support to RAF operational units in peace and in war. Additionally, the AWC, as host to the collocated DEWC, contributes to the military capability of all 3 Services by providing EW support direct to PJHQ and all operational units.

The AWC's motto (see crest photo) is: "ARMA JUDICARE CONSILIUM DARE", which means: "To test the weaponry and give advice".
