The rank system establishes a clear chain of command. It allows the OCdts to understand and exercise the principles of military leadership and the importance of following orders. The different ranks will also expose OCdts to various levels of responsibility and leadership, giving them practical experience in decision-making and team management. Through this structure, OCdts refine their leadership skills and character and are better prepared to meet the high standards expected of RBAF officers.
