The Public Security Wing was established in 1989 for various missions, ranging from patrolling and air photo to search and rescue, natural disaster aid, traffic control, VIP transportation, carrying a light assault team (2-3 persons), dropping operations, sniper operations, search for criminals and live transmission to ground
stations.
The RJAF provides the wing, which is based in King Abdullah I Air Base in Amman, with pilots qualified to fly the German-made EC-635T2, a light multi-purpose helicopter. For police work purposes, the chopper can be supplied with a rescue winch, external rope down device and an air photo camera.
The EC-635T2 helicopter has the capacity to carry five passengers, in addition to two pilots.
