  • Le 41e Escadron de la Royal Air Force est aujourd'hui le Typhoon Test and Evaluation Squadron (« TES ») de la RAF, basé à RAF Coningsby, Lincolnshire. Son titre officiel est "41 TES". L'escadron a été formé en 1916 pendant la Première Guerre mondiale (au sein du Royal Flying Corps) et a servi sur le front occidental en tant qu'escadron d'attaque au sol et de chasse. Dissout en 1919, il a été reformé en 1923 et est resté en service au Royaume-Uni jusqu'en 1935. Il a été ensuite déployé à Aden pendant la crise abyssine. Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, l'escadron est équipé des chasseurs Supermarine Spitfire et participe aux opérations de Dunkerque ainsi qu'à la bataille d'Angleterre dans les premières années de la guerre. Ces opérations sont menées depuis la Grande-Bretagne au-dessus de l'Europe occupée par les Allemands de 1941 à 1944, avant que l'escadron ne se déplace vers le continent après le débarquement de Normandie le 6 juin 1944. De 1944 à 1945, l'escadron soutient l'avancée alliée en Allemagne. Il y reste jusqu'au milieu de 1946 dans le cadre de la force d'occupation après la fin des hostilités. Dans les années d'après-guerre, l'escadron est dissous et reformé plusieurs fois, utilisant plusieurs types d'avions à réaction dans les rôles de chasseurs, d'appareils de reconnaissance, d'intercepteurs et pour les tests et évaluation de la RAF. En 2006, l'escadron est renommé Fast Jet & Weapons Operational Evaluation Unit (Unité d'Evaluation Opérationnelle des Jets Rapides et des Armes). Il est resté dans ce rôle jusqu'en 2010, date à laquelle il est devenu l'escadron de test et d'évaluation de la RAF. (fr)

During the Second World War, the squadron flew Supermarine Spitfire fighters and saw action over Dunkirk and the during the Battle of Britain in the early years of the war. Combat operations were flown from Britain over German-occupied Europe during 1941–1944, before the squadron moved to the continent after the Normandy landings. During 1944–45, the squadron supported the Allied advance into Germany and it remained there until mid-1946 as part of the occupation force following the end of hostilities. In the post war years, the squadron was disbanded and re-formed several times, operating a variety of jet aircraft in the fighter, reconnaissance and interceptor roles. In 2006, the squadron was re-roled as the Fast Jet & Weapons Operational Evaluation Unit. It remained in this role until 2010 when it became the RAF's Test and Evaluation Squadron. (en)
