Royal Air Force Station Akrotiri, more commonly known as RAF Akrotiri, is
a large Royal Air Force station and military airbase, on Cyprus. It is located
in the south of the island, in the UK Sovereign Base Area (SBA) of Akrotiri.
It is one of the few full-scale RAF stations left outside the United Kingdom.
Although located on Cyprus, it is not part of the territory of the government
in Nicosia. When the UK granted Cypriot independence in 1960, it retained a small
amount of territory to create the UK sovereign bases. Akrotiri stands within
the limits of that territory. The station commander is double-hatted and is also
the officer commanding the Akrotiri or Western Sovereign Base Area, reporting
to the commander of British Forces Cyprus who is also the Administrator.
