Personnel at 11 Squadron Qatari Emiri Air Force – a joint Qatar-UK training squadron based at RAF Leeming – are wearing what could possibly be the coolest military badge in the world.

Spending the summer flying Hawk T2s out of the North Yorkshire base, trainee fighter pilots wear the badge on their right sleeves of their flying suits.

The design of the badge takes inspiration from the famous Yorkshire Tea brand, in homage to Leeming's location in England's largest county.
