List of Yugoslav Air Force squadrons

Until the start of the 1959 reorganization of Yugoslav People's Army known under codename "Drvar", each Aviation Regiment of the Yugoslav Air Force comprised three aircraft squadrons and one technical squadron, whose task was to prepare materials and supplies of all three aircraft squadrons. Aircraft squadrons were marked as 1st, 2nd and 3rd Squadron of some Aviation Regiment. There were also some independent squadrons and training squadrons of Aviation Divisions, liaison squadrons of Military districts and Aviation Corps, light combat aviation squadrons and liaison squadrons of Air Command.

After the application of the "Drvar" reorganization for the Air Force, from April 1961, new type designation system is used to identify squadrons:

  • fighter aviation squadrons were given numbers from 120 onwards,
  • fighter-bomber aviation squadrons were given numbers from 235 onwards,
  • reconnaissance aviation squadrons were given numbers from 350 onwards,
  • light combat aviation squadrons were given numbers from 460 onwards,
  • anti-submarine aviation squadrons were given numbers from 570 onwards,
  • transport aviation squadrons were given numbers from 675 onwards,
  • helicopter squadrons were given numbers from 780 onwards,
  • liaison aviation squadrons were given numbers from 890 onwards.
