The No. 3 Security Forces Squadron (3 SECFOR) is an RAAF military unit whose primary task is to protect airfields, equipment, buildings and personnel.
Originally designated No. 3 Airfield Defence Squadron (3AFDS), in the mid-2000s, the squadron was disbanded and its resources dispersed between No 1AFDS (RAAF Edinburgh) and No 2AFDS (RAAF Amberley).[citation needed]
On 4 July 2013, the RAAF's security capability was reorganised.[1] Subsequently, No. 3 Security Forces Squadron was formed, with its headquarters based at RAAF Base Edinburgh.[2][3][4]
