List of United States Navy aircraft wings
Encyclopedia
This is a list of United States Navy aircraft wings. It covers both Carrier Air Wings
and land-based wings. Since groups in the United States Navy essentially came to be redefined as effectively the same as wings, it also covers groups.
Notes:
Also, the "A" Prefix denotes USN Atlantic Fleet affiliation, while "N" Denotes USN Pacific Fleet affiliation.
Carrier air wing
A Carrier Air Wing is an operational naval aviation organization composed of several aircraft squadrons and detachments of various types of fixed wing and rotary wing aircraft...
and land-based wings. Since groups in the United States Navy essentially came to be redefined as effectively the same as wings, it also covers groups.

Notes:
- 1. CVW-10 was originally assigned the "AK" fin flash whilst serving with the Atlantic Fleet until the air wing's disestablishment in the early 1970s. CVW-10 later borrowed the defunct CVW-19's fin flash when it was temporarily reactivated to serve in the Pacific Fleet during the mid-to-late 1980s.
- 2. CVW-13 was assigned CVW-10's original "AK" fin flash during the 1980s.
Also, the "A" Prefix denotes USN Atlantic Fleet affiliation, while "N" Denotes USN Pacific Fleet affiliation.
