Air Support Command of the Royal Air Force was formed on 1 August 1967 by the redesignation of Transport Command. Its change of name reflected the change of emphasis of the Command from merely transporting materials and men around the world to providing general support to RAF operations around the world. This meant that Air Support Command, unlike its predecessor Transport Command, possessed strike aircraft such as Hawker Hunters.
