Combat Survival Training School RAAF is a combat survival training school for the Royal Australian Air Force. Its base is at RAAF Base Townsville.[1] Its motto is "Adapt and Return".

All RAAF aircrew are required to complete a 21-day training course delivered by the Combat Survival Training School. As well as teaching survival skills, including how to evade enemy personnel, students are instructed in techniques to resist interrogation. In 2014 it was reported that the course was "one of the hardest things that any air force flyer will do".[2]
