This is a list of all of the aircraft operated by the Royal Australian Air Force

Royal Australian Air Force

The Royal Australian Air Force is the air force branch of the Australian Defence Force. The RAAF was formed in March 1921. It continues the traditions of the Australian Flying Corps , which was formed on 22 October 1912. The RAAF has taken part in many of the 20th century's major conflicts...

Omitted from list: various short-term and experimental types, civil types impressed into short-term emergency wartime service. Types marked RAN operated by the Royal Australian Navy Fleet Air Arm. Categorisation is arbitrary, and dependent on the primary practical use of the type, not its design use. For example, the F-4 Phantom, though designed as a fighter and used as such overseas, served in the RAAF only as a bomber and is listed accordingly.
