3rd Tactical Electronic Warfare Traing Sq

The 3rd Tactical Electronic Warfare Training Squadron (3rd TEWTS) was established during the height of the Cold War to enhance the United States Air Force's (USAF) electronic warfare capabilities. Initially activated in the late 1960s, the squadron specialized in providing advanced electronic countermeasures and simulated enemy electronic threats during aircrew training exercises. Throughout its service, the 3rd TEWTS played a critical role in preparing USAF and allied units for electronic warfare scenarios, particularly during Red Flag and other large-scale training operations. The unit’s expertise contributed significantly to the USAF’s ability to operate effectively in contested electromagnetic environments, ensuring readiness for modern combat operations.
