List of United States Navy aircraft wings information


This is a list of United States Navy aircraft wings. The U.S. Navy operates Carrier Air Wings which are operational units made up of squadrons of different types of aircraft that deploy aboard aircraft carriers. In addition to its Carrier Air Wings the Navy operates various land based wings. These land based wings are organized either to perform a specific function (Functional Wings) or around a specific aircraft type/model (Type Wings). Patrol and Reconnaissance Wings, Test Wings and Training Wings are examples of functional wings, these wings may consist of a single type of aircraft or of a variety of types needed to perform the wing's specific function. Type Wings consist of squadrons of a single type/model of aircraft, they are non-deploying "force providers" that provide combat ready squadrons or detachments to deploying Carrier Air Wings or to other Navy or joint forces. All Navy aircraft wings are commanded by a Navy Captain though the commander of a Training Air Wing or a Naval Test Wing could be a Marine Colonel.
