The 1st Aviation Regiment is an Australian Army aviation unit and part of the 16th (Aviation) Brigade. The Regiment was formed in April 1966 as the 1st Division Army Aviation Regiment and was redesignated the 1st Aviation Regiment in March 1967. While the Regiment has historically operated a mix of fixed wing aircraft and helicopters, it is currently being reequipped with the Tiger Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter and is in the process of relocating to newly constructed facilities at Robertson Barracks in Darwin.
