This is a list of Royal Air Force aircraft squadrons. It includes Royal Flying Corps and Royal Naval Air Service squadrons incorporated into the RAF when it was formed in 1918, during World War I. The list also includes squadrons from British Empire and Commonwealth air forces which have served within RAF units. However, the list excludes squadrons which were later transferred to the Army Air Corps or the Fleet Air Arm. Squadrons with Roman numerals instead of Arabic numerals are identified in that fashion traditionally.
