Carrier Air Wing Fourteen
Carrier Air Wing Fourteen (CVW-14), was a United States Navy aircraft carrier air wing based at Naval Air Station Lemoore, California.
To conduct carrier air warfare operations and assist in the planning, control, coordination and integration of seven air wing squadrons in support of carrier air warfare including; Interception and destruction of enemy aircraft and missiles in all-weather conditions to establish and maintain local air superiority. All-weather offensive air-to-surface attacks, Detection, localization, and destruction of enemy ships and submarines to establish and maintain local sea control. Aerial photographic, sighting, and electronic intelligence for naval and joint operations. Airborne early warning service to fleet forces and shore warning nets. Airborne electronic countermeasures. In-flight refueling operations to extend the range and the endurance of air wing aircraft and Search and rescue operations.
During the 2011 deployment the following squadrons were assigned to CVW-14: There are no squadrons currently assigned to CVW-14
Carrier Air Wing 14 was established at Naval Air Station Miramar, CA as Carrier Air Group 101 on 1 August 1950 to receive United States Navy Reserve squadrons which were activated for participation in the Korean War. It made its first deployment aboard USS Kearsarge. On 4 February 1952, CVG-101 was redesignated Carrier Air Group 14 (CVG-14).
On 20 December 1963 all Carrier Air Groups were re-designated Carrier Air Wings and CVG-14 became Carrier Air Wing Fourteen (CVW-14). In August 1964, while embarked aboard USS Constellation, CVW-14 conducted the first air strikes against North Vietnam. Subsequent combat deployments were made aboard USS Ranger, Constellation and USS Enterprise. On 27 January 1973, Air Wing 14 squadrons flew the last combat sorties of the Vietnam War. In June 1973, CVW-14 became the first operational air wing to receive the F-14A Tomcat. In September 1974, CVW-14 deployed aboard Enterprise for its first peacetime deployment in ten years. On 29 April 1975, CVW-14 was again involved in Vietnam, providing support and air cover for the evacuation of U.S. personnel from South Vietnam during Operation Frequent Wind.
On 30 July 1976, CVW-14 embarked aboard Enterprise again for the first S-3A Viking Western Pacific deployment. After one more deployment on Enterprise, Carrier Air Wing 14 was reassigned to USS Coral Sea. Two U.S. Marine Corps fighter squadrons, VMFA-323 and VMFA-531 (F-4N "Phantom II"), joined the CVW-14 team, marking the first time since World War II that two Marine fighter squadrons comprised the fighter arm of a Navy Air Wing. CVW-14 embarked on Coral Sea in November 1979 en route to the Western Pacific and a continuous 102-day at-sea period on "Gonzo" Station in the North Arabian Sea. CVW-14 made two more deployments on Coral Sea.
While en route to the island of Diego Garcia, CVW-14 and USS Independence were diverted to the North Arabian Sea in support of Operation Desert Shield. Independence arrived on station on 6 August 1990 as part of the United States Central Command buildup.
On 5 August 1991, CVW-14 embarked aboard Independence and commenced transit to Pearl Harbor for swap-out with USS Midway. The CVW-14 staff cross-decked to Midway in Pearl Harbor 24 August. VF-21, VF-154, and VS-21 were detached from CVW-14 but remained on board Independence as part of the CVW-5 organizational structure. CVW-14, then embarked on Midway and returned to San Diego, marking Midway's last operational underway period prior to being decommissioned from active fleet service.
