RAF Ibsley Battle Command Headquarters

3D Model

RAF Ibsley was equipped with a Battle Command Headquarters that could serve as a point to co-ordinate defence in the event that the airfield was overrun by ground forces.

The BCHQ at RAF Ibsley is located on the hill (Newlands Copse) to the east of the Control Tower and is still standing. Unusually it consists of two cupolas giving views across to the airfield and of the surrounding countryside.
