North-Western Area Command was one of several geographically based commands raised by the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) during World War II. Its wartime sphere of operations included the Northern Territory, adjacent portions of Queensland and Western Australia, and the Dutch East Indies. The command was formed in January 1942, following the outbreak of the Pacific War, from the western part of Northern Area Command, which had covered all of northern Australia and Papua. Headquartered at Darwin, North-Western Area Command was initially responsible for air defence, aerial reconnaissance and protection of the sea lanes within its boundaries.

  • Le North-Western Area Command était l'un des nombreux commandements du RAAF Command établies par la Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Sa sphère d'opérations en temps de guerre inclut le Territoire du Nord, les parties adjacentes du Queensland et de l'Australie occidentale, ainsi que les Indes orientales néerlandaises. Le commandement est fondé en janvier 1942, à la suite du déclenchement de la guerre du Pacifique, dans la partie ouest du North Area Command, qui couvrait tout le nord de l'Australie et de la Papouasie. Basé à Darwin, le North-Western Area Command est au début responsable de la défense aérienne, de la reconnaissance aérienne et de la protection des voies maritimes australiennes. Il est dissous en 1955. (fr)
