Military Disability Pension taxable in UK?

I've been receiving an RAF disability pension since age 53 due to injuries received in the Middle East on secondment. My question is whether or not I should have been paying tax on that pension for the last 14 years - whilst living in OZ? .......obviously because I have been paying UK tax. Maybe I should ask PAYMASTER?

I know that Vets Affairs disability pensions are NOT taxable in OZ.... but inconsistency is evident everywhere.

Anybody cluey on that aspect of UK military pensions?
