Tasks

ADG Aircraft Security Operations

As an Airfield Defence Guard you will be trained in Aircraft Security Operations (ASO). The purpose of Aircraft Security Operations is to provide force protection to aircraft, aircrew, evacuees and essential equipment, both in flight and on the ground within the confines of an airfield.

ADG Patrol and Surveillance Operations

As airfields can be vulnerable to reconnaissance and attack from potential threats, Airfield Defence Guards are trained to conduct Patrol and Surveillance Operations (PSO) around potential approaches to airfields, thus providing early warning and protection to military assets and personnel.

ADG Quick Reaction Force

As an Airfield Defence Guard you will be trained to undertake Quick Reaction Force (QRF) duties. The primary purpose of the QRF is to undertake counter-attack and counter-penetration tasks, in addition to cordons and searches, sweeps and clearances, vehicle and personnel checks, and convoy protection.

ADG Urban Operations

As a large airfield can be viewed as a small town with many different buildings, Airfield Defence Guards are trained to operate in an urban environment.
