Number 1 Squadron, also known as No. 1 (Fighter) Squadron, is a squadron of the Royal Air Force. It was the first squadron to fly a VTOL aircraft.

The squadron motto, In omnibus princeps ("First in all things") reflects the squadron's status as the RAF's oldest unit, having been involved in almost every major British military operation from the First World War to the present time. These include the Second World War, Suez Crisis, Falklands War, Gulf War, Kosovo War, Operation Telic (Iraq) and Operation Herrick (Afghanistan).

1 Squadron operated the Harrier from 1969 until its retirement from service in 2010.

1(F) Squadron formed by RAF Air UK in October 2019 has since led operations utilizing the RAZBAM DCS AV8B NA for missions ranging from low level CAS, Air Interdiction, Battlefield Air Interdiction, Armed Reconnaissance, Strike Operations, Offensive Counter Air, Reconnaissance, Forward Air Controller Airborne, Strike Coordination and Reconnaissance, DEAD and COIN operations in all theatre's of operations within DCS World.

1(F) Squadron have often found themselves embarked aboard HMS Invincible for operations around the globe but are also not strangers to operating from the LHA-1 Tawara of the US Navy.

1(F) Squadron is slways happy to welcome Harrier pilots of all skill sets and abilities to join its ever growing ranks.
