Air Force Tactical Air Warfare Center
[edit]The USAF Tactical Air Warfare Center was activated in 1963 to improve use of USAF tactical aviation in support of ground forces by operationally testing weapon systems and tactics for the joint U.S. Strike Command. It employed a cross-section of tactical aircraft from Tactical Air Command (TAC) bases across the country. During the Vietnam War it tested tactical weapons systems and tactics for use in Southeast Asia. After the war it continued operational testing of new tactical aviation weapon systems. In 1977 the centre began an annual series of Air Force-wide exercises to improve command, control, communications, and intelligence (C3I) techniques. Around the same time it embarked on the electronic warfare evaluation program, and continued OT&E of aviation weapon systems for TAC and later Air Combat Command, the Department of Defense, and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. From 1983 to present, responsible for the operational testing and evaluation (OT&E) of all Air Force aircraft/weapons systems, and providing range control for live-firing missile programs on the Gulf range and aerial targets, using full scale and subscale drones. In September 1995, the 53d Tactical Fighter Group and USAF Air Warfare Center were consolidated and the consolidated unit was redesignated as the 53d Wing the following month. The United States Air Force Tactical Air Warfare Center had the following aircraft in the 4485th Test Squadron: 7 x F-4E; 4 x RF-4C; 1 x F-15A; 4 x F-15C; 2 x F-16A Fighting Falcon; 3 x F-16C Fighting Falcon; and 3 x A-10A Thunderbolt II aircraft.[2]

First Air Force
[edit]The First Air Force provides the parts of the Tactical Air Command at the North American Aerospace Defense Command / NORAD, particularly in the area of since July 1987 reorganized Continental U.S. NORAD region. By July 1987, four existed Air Divisions (23 AD, 24 AD, 25 AD, 26 AD), which also corresponded to a NORAD region. As part of the reorganization, the 23rd Air Division and the 26th Air Division were disbanded and four air defense sectors led by the two remaining Air Divisions repositioned. Air surveillance has been carried out since 1983 as part of the Joint Surveillance System / JSS conducted by the USAF in conjunction with the Federal Aviation Administration / FAA of the U.S. Department of Transportation. The majority of Radar systems are operated by the FAA. The First Air Force is reinforced on deployment by Air National Guard units, with the alarm squads of these formations already in peace from the four air defense sectors be led.

Air Forces Iceland are in the area of responsibility of the joint United States Atlantic Command, but also represent the eastern extension ("extension") of the command area of NORAD. The operation of the Icelandic radar stations H-1 and H-3 transferred from USAF to Government of Iceland Radar Agency in 1988, which in turn hired a civilian contractor for this task attracts. The Iceland Air Defense System / IADS has been under construction since 1987 whose decommissioned radar station H-2 in Gunnolfvikursfjall (IC) is back in operation taken and the also decommissioned radar station H-4 in Straumnesviti (IC) as H-4A will be rebuilt in Bolungarvik (IC). All four plants will receive radar systems of the type AN/FPS-117. The project is completed in 1992.

Twelfth Air Force
[edit]During the 1980s, Twelfth Air Force wings upgraded from the Vietnam-Era F-4s and A-7s to newer F-15s, F-16 and A-10 aircraft. First-generation F-15A/B models were later sent to Air National Guard fighter units while Regular Air Force units upgraded to the higher-capability F-15C/Ds and the new F-15E replaced the F-4E in the 4th TFW. The Twelfth Air Force after its reformation was tasked with overseeing the combat wings based west of the Mississippi River.
In 1987, the Twelfth Air Force commander took on the United States Air Force Southern Command responsibility. As such, 12 AF manages all Air Force personnel and assets in the United States Southern Command area of responsibility-Central and South America. During the United States invasion of Panama in 1989, for example, 12 AF and other Air Force units deployed in support of U.S. forces, returning democracy to Panama.

The 58th Tactical Training Wing was based at Luke AFB in Arizona and provided combat air crew training not just to American pilots, but also to allied nations including the Luftwaffe, The Netherlands, Turkey, Norway, and Greece. From 1983 the wing converted from the McDonnell Douglas F-4C to the new General Dynamics F-16C/D and continued training with the aircraft. The wing's secondary role was to provide support personnel to Europe which it did in 1991 during Operation Desert Shield/Storm.

On 20 August 1987, the 10th Tactical Reconnaissance Wing was re-equipped and re-designated as the 10th Tactical Fighter Wing swapping its old McDonnell Douglas RF-4C reconnaissance aircraft for Fairchild Republic A-10A Attack Aircraft. The 509th and 511th Tactical Fighter Squadrons joined the wing shortly after from RAF Bentwaters and RAF Woodbridge respectively. If war broke out, the wing would have provided second-line attack support with a focus on the North German Plain.

The 20th Tactical Fighter Wing was based at RAF Upper Heyford and provided strike and sometimes nuclear-capable bombs for European air operations. In 1983, the wing also included electronic countermeasures as part of their role and later also tactical electronic warfare attack. As a result of the post-Cold War reductions to the Air Force, the wing was moved without personnel and equipment to South Carolina on 1 January 1994.[11]

Twenty-Third Air Force
[edit]Before 1983, USAF special operations forces (SOF) were primarily assigned to Tactical Air Command (TAC) and were generally deployed under the control of U.S. Air Forces in Europe (USAFE) or, as had been the case during the Vietnam War, Pacific Air Forces (PACAF). Just as it had relinquished control of the C-130 theater airlift fleet to Military Airlift Command (MAC) in 1975, TAC relinquished control of Air Force SOF to MAC in December 1982.
Twenty-Third Air Force was established on 1 March 1983 at Scott AFB, Illinois, as an additional Numbered Air Force in MAC with responsibility for all Air Force SOF units, personnel, aircraft and installations as well as Aerospace Rescue and Recovery Service (ARRS) and weather reconnaissance units, personnel and aircraft that were already extant in MAC. On 1 August 1987, Twenty-Third Air Force moved to Hurlburt Field, Florida. Twenty-Third Air Force later served as the core organization for the formation of Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC). The Twenty-Third Air Force was inactivated on 22 May 1990 when AFSOC was established as an Air Force major command (MAJCOM).[17]

Air Rescue Service
[edit]In August 1989, ARRS was reorganized and re-established as the Air Rescue Service (ARS) at McClellan AFB, California, again as a subcommand to Military Airlift Command (MAC). However, following Operation DESERT STORM in 1991, subsequent major USAF reorganizations resulted in the disestablishment of Military Airlift Command, the divestment of its C-130 tactical/theater airlift assets to U.S. Air Forces in Europe (USAFE), Pacific Air Forces (PACAF) and the newly created Air Combat Command (ACC), and the integration of its C-141 and C-5 strategic airlift assets with the KC-135 and KC-10 air refueling aircraft assets of the former Strategic Air Command (SAC) in order to create the new Air Mobility Command.[note 1]

375th Aeromedical Airlift Wing
[edit]The 375th Aeromedical Airlift Wing was the only dedicated aeromedical evacuation formation of the Air Force. The wing's role was to provide aeromedical evacuation and airlift via Civilian-designed aircraft (notably the McDonnell Douglas C-9A and Learjet C-21A). In 1990, the wing lost its special role and simply became the 375th Military Airlift Wing and its squadrons re-assigned elsewhere.
