The 35th Tactical Fighter Wing retained control of the 20th and 21st Tactical Fighter Training Squadrons and gained the 39th Tactical Fighter Squadron. </p><p>With the inactivation of the 39th Tactical Fighter Squadron in 1985, the 35th Tactical Fighter Wing was redesignated the 35th Tactical Training Wing. However, the wing kept its air defense augmentation responsibility. It provided operations and maintenance support for the close air support portion of Army training exercises conducted at the U.S. Army National Training Center at <a href="/wiki/Fort_Irwin" class="mw-redirect" title="Fort Irwin">Fort Irwin</a>, Calif., from 1981 to 1990. Also, the wing advised specific <a href="/wiki/Air_National_Guard" title="Air National Guard">Air National Guard</a> units on F-4 operations from 1981 to 1991. </p><p>The new 37th Tactical Fighter Wing assumed the 561st Tactical Fighter Squadron (TFS), 562nd Tactical Fighter Training Squadron (TFTS), and 563rd Tactical Fighter Squadron (TFS)for active Wild Weasel missions in 1981. This training ended in 1989 when the 37th TFW was reassigned to <a href="/wiki/Tonopah_Test_Range" title="Tonopah Test Range">Tonopah Test Range</a> <a href="/wiki/Nevada" title="Nevada">Nevada</a> assuming F-117A operational development. </p><p>Operations at George Air Force Base were reorganized again 5 October 1989. The 37th Tactical Fighter Wing and the 35th Tactical Training Wing consolidated all operations under the newly redesignated 35th Tactical Fighter Wing. Under the reorganization the 35th regained control of the 561st Tactical Fighter Squadron and the 562nd Tactical Fighter Training Squadron. </p><p>In August 1990, the 35th Tactical Fighter Wing mobilized in support of Operation Desert Shield. On 16 August 1990, 24 F-4Gs of the 561st Tactical Fighter Squadron left George Air Force Base en route to <a href="/wiki/Shaikh_Isa_Air_Base" class="mw-redirect" title="Shaikh Isa Air Base">Shaikh Isa Air Base</a>, <a href="/wiki/Bahrain" title="Bahrain">Bahrain</a>. Once in the Middle East, its deployed people established operational, maintenance and living facilities for the 35th Tactical Fighter Wing (Provisional). These facilities eventually housed more than 60 active duty and <a href="/wiki/Air_National_Guard" title="Air National Guard">Air National Guard</a> F-4s and more than 2,600 military members. </p><p>During Operation Desert Storm, which started 17 January 1991, the 561st Tactical Fighter Squadron flew 1,182 combat sorties for a total of 4,393.5 hours. The 35th Tactical Fighter Wing (Provisional) was credited with flying 3,072 combat missions for 10,318.5 hours. U.S. Central Command relied heavily on the wing's Wild Weasels to suppress enemy air defense systems. The F-4G aircrews were credited with firing 905 missiles at Iraqi targets, while the RF-4C aircrews shot more than 300,000 feet of vital reconnaissance film. During operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm, the 35th Tactical Fighter Wing (Provisional) suffered no casualties. The wing's people began returning to George Air Force Base 23 March 1991, with its aircraft and pilots following three days later. </p><p>The 35th became the host unit for George Air Force Base when the 831st Air Division there inactivated on 31 March 1991. As a result, the wing gained several support agencies, including the 35th Combat Support Group and associated squadrons. In support of the Air Force's force reduction programs, the 21st Tactical Fighter Training Squadron inactivated 28 June 1991. That October, as part of the Air Force's reorganization plan, the 35th Tactical Fighter Wing was redesignated the 35th Fighter Wing. A month later, the wing's tactical fighter squadrons were redesignated as fighter squadrons. </p><p>In 1992, the 35th began downsizing in preparation for the closure of George Air Force Base. On 5 June 1992, the 20th Fighter Squadron moved to <a href="/wiki/Holloman_Air_Force_Base" title="Holloman Air Force Base">Holloman Air Force Base</a>, <a href="/wiki/New_Mexico" title="New Mexico">New Mexico</a>, and by the end of June, the 561st and 562nd Fighter Squadrons were inactivated. </p><p>On 15 December 1992, the <a href="/wiki/35th_Fighter_Wing" title="35th Fighter Wing">35th Fighter Wing</a> inactivated and George Air Force Base closed bringing an end to 21 years of continuous service and more than 34 years of total service for the 35 FW. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Secondary_USAF_wings_assigned">Secondary USAF wings assigned</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=George_Air_Force_Base&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Secondary USAF wings assigned"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:F-86a-116fis-bent.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a9/F-86a-116fis-bent.jpg/220px-F-86a-116fis-bent.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="123" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a9/F-86a-116fis-bent.jpg/330px-F-86a-116fis-bent.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a9/F-86a-116fis-bent.jpg/440px-F-86a-116fis-bent.jpg 2x" data-file-width="600" data-file-height="335" /></a><figcaption>North American F-86A-5-NA Sabre, AF Ser.
