505th Command & Control Wing

The Air Force activated the 505th Command and Control Wing during a ceremony on March 12, 2004. The 505th was created from the redesignated Air Force Command and Control Training and Innovation Group.

The wing's mission is to direct the Air Force's operational air and space command and control center of excellence, and to build the air and space command and control capabilities for U.S. and coalition warfighters.

Three groups make up the 505th CCW: the 505th Training Group with its headquarters here; the 505th Operations Group at Nellis Air Force Base, Nev.; and the 505th Distributed Warfare Group at Kirtland AFB, N.M.

The wing will remain an Air Warfare Center unit.
