809 Naval Air Squadron (NAS) disbanded in December of 1982, 9 months after a Squadron of Sea Harriers had been formed to fly from HMS Invincible and HMS Hermes at the height of the Falklands conflict. In early August of 1982 the Squadron sailed on the newly commissioned HMS Illustrious providing air defence for Port Stanley while the airport was upgraded to accept RAF Phantoms. Fast forward 41 years, 809 NAS re-commissioned as the second frontline F-35B Lightning Squadron based at RAF Marham. A commissioning ceremony took place in December 2023 to officially stand-up the Squadron.
617 Squadron is based at RAF Marham. The Squadron adopted its name and badge after the famous Dams Raid in 1943. Previous aircraft flown include the Avro Lancaster, Lincoln and Vulcan; English Electric Canberra; and Panavia Tornado. They are now flying the F-35B Lightning fifth-generation combat aircraft.
In 2014 617 Sqn, disbanded on 28 February, after returning from a final HERRICK deployment on 30 January. Began re-forming in 2016, in preparation to become the UK’s first frontline Lockheed Martin F-35B Lightning unit. In 2018, our 617 Squadron Lightnings landed at RAF Marham, the unit’s new home. In 2019 the Lightning Dawn saw 617 Squadron deploy to RAF Akrotiri for Operation SHADER sorties and subsequent training alongside Israeli and Italian F-35s.
And in June 2020 , 617 Squadron embarked operational Lightnings aboard HMS Queen Elizabeth for the first time. In September, the unit returned to the ship, alongside visiting US Marine Corps F-35Bs, in preparation for the vessel’s Carrier Strike Group 21 first operational sailing in 2021.
207 Squadron is the joint RAF and Royal Navy Operational Conversion Unit for Lightning. It started as 7 Naval Air Squadron in 1916 at Petit-Synthe, France. The squadron then became part of the RAF in 1918 and in 1938, they became the Fairey Battle operational training unit at RAF Cottesmore. In 1968, 207 reformed at RAF Northolt as the RAF Communications Squadron, disbanding again in 1984. They then reformed again in 2002 at RAF Linton-on-Ouse as 207 (Reserve) Squadron conducting Basic Fast Jet Training for RAF and Royal Navy pilots, disbanding again in 2012. 7 years later in 2019, 207 squadron stood up as 207 Squadron at RAF Marham as the F-35 Lightning Operational Conversion Unit.

what a beautiful day to be at RAF Marham what more could want F35's and Nikos and Ted with Wingy, Drew and Wingy we even got to see some wild life Rodney put in an appearance. Saw some light aircraft. Nikos was up to speed detailing the history of the base just love that. Thanks for a great day see everyone tomorrow at Mildenhall
RAF Marham, what a lovely peaceful, chilled stream this was. Even that wonderful haunting, beast of a howl from the F-35s didn't spoil the ambience. In fact, they gave Wingy inspiration for his new novel "Hovering Heights" & there was a dance scene at the end, with the Pocket Chair! Well worth the viewing! ❤ 😆
Oiii oiii Margo 🤙🏼 it is always a nice mix to throw in Marham to the mix. Oooohh yeah
Pocket Chair manoeuvre at the end , a gymnastics routine aka the fallen presenter. Glad you kept that in. 💯 %😂😅. Wingy and Drew having a educational moment regarding the Hover. Demo on Wingy before Drew did the Throwing move. Poor Wingy. 😊 Getting more like Reggie everyday Drew, hanging around with him too much. Some fantastic shots of the F35 flying right over towards the Ted Mobile. Looked great that.
5:21:19 was amazing too watch. Sounding absolutely tremendous as they low approach to then climb into circuit. Wonderful Slow approach into vertical landing. The noise is a real great moment. 👍 . Phenom and Tutor appearing too. A relaxed stream to watch over a few nights. Big up the educational moments. Respect to the gentlemen that came and spoke to Ted and Nikos. Time for Lakenheath now.
Lovely 😍
Oii Oii Dan thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed man.
I see "Blue skies" here at Marham , perfect as I Low approach my 1 years service with the TCS. It was a warm one. Spent my morning actually on RAF Marham working. Brief sighting of jets as they were on low approach. Comment! Later
