7440th Composite Wing : ウィキペディア英語版 | 7440th Composite Wing
The 7440th Composite Wing (Provisional) was a Major Air Command-controlled (MAJCON) temporary wing of the United States Air Forces in Europe (USAFE), active in Turkey in 1991. The concentration of aircraft under the 7440th Wing's control made possible the opening of a "northern front" against Iraq, via Turkey, during the 1991 Gulf War. ==Formation== By late December 1990, there was already a formidable arsenal of USAFE airpower deployed to Turkey: 20 F-111Es, 24 F-16Cs, 10 F-15Cs, and 4 SAC KC-135s.〔http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/proven_force.htm〕 These aircraft were in Turkey for various reasons including rotational training, a NATO exercise, and NATO alert duty, but remained under control of their respective home units. Eventually more than 100 USAFE aircraft and 2,600 personnel deployed to Incirlik.〔See Gordon W. Rudd, ('Humanitarian Intervention: Assisting the Iraqi Kurds in Operation Provide Comfort ), Center for Military History, 1991, 22-29.〕 However, if Turkey approved the task force's activation, Joint Task Force Proven Force could absorb all of these assets and the others it required.
