===479th Tactical Training Wing=== The 479th TTW was activated at Holloman on 1 January 1977 to provide Lead-In Fighter Training (LIFT) training for pilots assigned to fly tactical fighter or attack aircraft. The 479th Flew AT-38B Talons with the following squadrons: * 416th Tactical Fighter Training Squadron (14 March 1979 β 1 September 1983) (grey stripe)<br />Redesignated 433d TFTS (1 September 1983 β 15 November 1991) * [[434th Fighter Training Squadron|434th Tactical Fighter Training Squadron]] (1 January 1977 β 15 November 1991) (red stripe) * [[435th Fighter Training Squadron|435th Tactical Fighter Training Squadron]] (1 January 1977 β 15 November 1991) (blue stripe) * [[436th Tactical Fighter Training Squadron]] (1 January 1977 β 15 November 1991) (yellow stripe) All 479th TTW aircraft carried the "HM" tail code. The LIFT program was sharply cut back in 1991, and the wing replaced by the '''479th Fighter Group''' at Holloman, with the aircraft being consolidated under the '''586th Flight Training Squadron'''. The 479th was inactivated on 31 July 2000, with squadron resources absorbed by the 49th FW, later being transferred to the 46th Test Group as the '''586th Flight Test Squadron'''.
