The reality of military life inside an Afghanistan air base. Subscribe to Our Stories: https://bit.ly/3lzSXhv

This extraordinary programme follows the frontline forces at a purpose-built military town on the outskirts of Kandahar in Afghanistan, where 14,000 men and women live in perhaps the world's most dangerous Warzone. The Kandahar airbase is a key facility run by the British on behalf of NATO, and the Royal Air Force has an 800-strong presence there. The RAF is the most technologically advanced of all the forces and here it is pushed to the limit. While luxuries are few and far between, keeping a base running smoothly in the middle of a desert is a challenge in itself.
