Air Field Defense / Air Police

 

The Air Field Defense-units of the Belgian Air Force have changed their name often since World War II :

- Belgian Auxiliary Air Police Service

- Vliegveld Verdedigings Eenheden - Unités de Défence des Aérodormes VVE-UDA (Air Field Defense Units)

- Installatie Beveiligings Eenheden - Unités de Protection des Installations IBE-UPI (Installation Protection Units)

- Air Commando´s

- Integrated Security

But they are still commonly, and probably always will be, known as the Air Commando´s,
