(asked on 15th April 2024) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask His Majesty's Government what is the manpower strength of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary.
This question was answered on 29th April 2024
The number of personnel within the Royal Fleet Auxiliary (RFA) is a constantly evolving figure, with sailors leaving the Service after years at sea, and future generations joining through direct entry or apprenticeship schemes.
I can confirm however, that as of 1 October 2023, the overall personnel strength of the RFA was 1,675.
