Description
The United States Air Force's 138th Fighter Wing (138 FW) is a fighter unit located at Tulsa International Airport in Tulsa, Oklahoma. An Air National Guard (ANG) unit operationally-gained by the Air Combat Command (ACC), the wing flies the F-16 Fighting Falcon multirole fighter. In 2005, the Base Realignment and Closure committee brought an expansion to the 138th Fighter Wing's mission. The wing acquired three F-16 Block 42 aircraft from the 57th Wing located at Nellis Air Force Base as well as six F-16 Block 42 aircraft from 132nd Fighter Wing, Iowa Air National Guard. After conversion to the F-16 Fighting Falcon, the 138 th Fighter Wing has participated in Operation Provide Comfort, Operation Northern Watch, and Operation Iraqi Freedom. The unit's deployment to Iraq in 2008 marked their 10th deployment to the Middle East. Additionally, the laser targeting pod system for precision guided munitions employment has been incorporated into the unit mission.
