Description

The Defence Fire Training and Development Centre is where Britain's Ministry of Defence trains its firefighters. It occupies part of a former Royal Air Force base near the village of Manston in the southeast corner of England. The remainder of the former RAF Manston was part of Kent International Airport, a civilian airfield, until the site was closed on the 15th May 2014.

The USAF returned the Manston base to the RAF in 1959, and a number of training establishments were established there, including the Air Ministry Fire Training School. In 1989 the RAF consolidated the RAF Fire Fighting and Rescue Squadron from RAF Catterick to Manston, forming the RAF Fire Services Central Training Establishment . In 1995, the station was chosen to be the central training facility for all MOD firefighter training operations, and became MOD FSCTE.
