The 104th Test Wing is a notional military unit; however, the real-world 104th Fighter Wing is a unit of the Massachusetts Air National Guard, based at Barnes Air National Guard Base in Westfield, Massachusetts. Established in 1947, the unit traces its lineage to the 131st Tactical Fighter Squadron, which served in World War II. Over the decades, the wing has operated various fighter aircraft, including the F-86 Sabre, F-100 Super Sabre, A-10 Thunderbolt II, and currently the F-15C Eagle. The 104th has participated in both domestic air defense missions and overseas deployments, contributing to operations such as Enduring Freedom and Noble Eagle. The wing's ongoing mission focuses on air sovereignty, combat readiness, and supporting both federal and state taskings.
