The recruiting target for the RAF has been increased to 4559 per year and 629 additional posts have been funded, 184 for RAF Regiment and 99 engineers for the C17.
Also an increase in multi-engine pilot trainings and 219 posts in the SH Force.
Oh, and 26 posts for JPA improvements.
With a manpower ceiling of 41000 and only 629 additional posts you can perhaps guess why the recruiting target has increased.
