Fieldcraft is an activity of the RAF Air Cadets that ties into military skills. Within fieldcraft, you gain key skills on how to survive and navigate unfamiliar terrain which would typically be on an Army Training Base. This would include looking after key essentials, making shelter to protect you from the elements, and moving swiftly and stealthily across ground.

Fieldcraft is something cadets across our squadron have a widespread interest in. With a qualified JL as a part of our staff team, cadets gain the best fundamental training for the basics in our squadron.

Fieldcraft skills gained from the Air Cadets can be incredibly valuable in various aspects of life. These skills go beyond military training and can be applied to personal and professional situations, enhancing one's overall competence and adaptability.

The skills gained are as followed:
  • Survival skills
  • Navigation and map reading
  • Observation and situational awareness
  • Stealth and camouflage
  • Teamwork and leadership
  • Adaptability and resourcefulness
  • Physical fitness and endurance
  • Confidence and self-reliance
  • Crisis management
  • Communication skills
