They operate the F-22A Raptor, the Air Force’s 5th generation fighter aircraft with a select component of active duty personnel acting in the cadre role.

History World War II Established in late 1944 at Peterson Field, Colorado, as the 464th Fighter Squadron. Trained under XXII Bomber Command as a Very Long Range P-47N Thunderbolt bomber escort squadron, programmed for B-29 Superfortress escort duty from Okinawa. For four months they received combat training for long-range escort, strafing, and dive-bombing. Training delayed due to P-47N aircraft non-availability, finally equipped in the late spring of 1945 with the long-distance fighters. Deployed to Okinawa in June 1945 as part of the 507th Fighter Group and prepared for the invasion of Japan along with the 413th and 414th Fighter Groups, all equipped with P-47N. On 1 July 1945 it began flying airstrikes from Ie Shima, targeting enemy ships, railroad bridges, airfields, factories, and barracks in Japan, Korea, and China. On 8 August 1945 the group escorted B-29 bombers on a raid, shooting down several Japanese fighters. The squadron flew some long distance fighter-bomber sweeps over Japanese Home Islands 1 July 1945 – 14 August 1945 but never performed operational B-29 escort missions due to the end of the war in August. Last “Ace in a Day” of World War II was 1st LT Oscar Perdomo of the 464th. Remained in Okinawa until inactivated in May 1946. 119th Fighter Squadron F-16 Fighting Falcon Model, Lockheed Martin, Mahogany 1/33 (18")Scale 119th Fighter Squadron F-16 Fighting Falcon Model
