| - The 328th Armament Systems Wing (328 ARSW) is an inactive wing of the United States Air Force. It was last active in 2007, assigned to the Air Armament Center, part of Air Force Material Command (AFMC) at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida. It was first activated in 1942 as the 328th Fighter Group and served during World War II as a fighter aircraft training unit until disbanded in 1944 in a major reorganization of the Army Air Forces. The group was reactivated in 1955 in a reorganization of Air Defense Command (ADC) in which ADC replace its existing Air Defense Groups with fighter groups that had served during World War II. It provided air defense for the central United States and supported all USAF units at Richards-Gebaur AFB, Missouri. In 1961, the mission expanded and the 328th Fighter Group became the 328th Fighter Wing until the wing was inactivated in 1968 and its operational squadron reassigned. The wing was activated a final time in 2004 as the Air to Air Systems Wing in the Air Force Materiel Command Transformation, which replaced the traditional staff office organization of the Air Armament Center and other AFMC centers with wing, groups, and squadrons. It became the 328 ARSW in 2006. but in 2008 AFMC returned to its traditional organization for most of its centers and the wing was inactivated.
