Significance

This squadron has adopted a unicorn as its badge for, like the creature itself, its abilities are derived from the strengths of the many parts from which it is composed. The pomme is in recognition of CFB Greenwood, the location where the new squadron was formed. When the squadron was disbanded its training functions were taken by 404 Squadron.

Motto

Unanimi cum ratione (United with a purpose)
