The 43d Tactical Missile Squadron is an inactive United States Air Force unit, formed in 1985 by the consolidation of the 843d Bombardment Squadron and the 943d Forward Air Control Squadron. It has not been active under its current designation.
The 843d Bombardment Squadron was formed in May 1943 as the 24th Antisubmarine Squadron. It engaged in antisubmarine patrols through the summer of 1943 until the mission was turned over to the United States Navy. It then trained aircrews until it was disbanded in 1944.
The 943d Forward Air Control Squadron provided Tactical Air Control Parties in Germany from 1952 until its inactivation in 1954.
