To answer some Qs, There is a section that is trained to recover downed aircrew called CSAR (Combat Search And Rescue). 2 Sqn RAF Regt are Para capable. It is also possible to earn wings on other RAF Regt Squadrons. RAF Regt Gunners do get selected for SF roles. There are RAF Regt Gunners are also involved in TACPs and 27SQN Specialise in CBRN. Training also includes FIBUA Tactics - (Fighting In Built Up Areas). This includes clearing various complexes. These are just a few skills within the RAF Regt.
Each SQN has Rifle flights, Sharp Shooters, Support fire (GPMG, 50cal, Mortars etc), Sniper Sections, They are trained to patrol on foot, motorbikes, quadbikes and WMIKs (Weapons Mounted Installation Kits). They are trained in things from defending and attacking airfields to creating TLZs (Tactical Landing Zones). They are kitted out to be a self sustaining unit so if the **** does hit the fan, they will have been trained to deal with all situations thrown at them.
Regardless of if i was in the forces or not, i'd say that it's quite a lot of skills within a small Regiment
