The 374th Operation Group is a United States Air Force unit under the jurisdiction of the Air Combat Command. Established during World War II, its initial role focused on conducting B-29 Superfortress bomber operations over Japan. In peacetime, the group performs various mission sets such as providing combat-ready aircraft and crews for air defense, close air support, and precision strike missions. Throughout its history, the 374th Operation Group has been stationed at several bases across the United States and has contributed to numerous conflicts including the Korean War, Vietnam War, Gulf War, and the ongoing Global War on Terrorism. The group's primary aircraft have evolved over time from heavy bombers like the B-29 Superfortress to multi-role fighters such as the F-15E Strike Eagle and F-35A Lightning II.
