Although the 401st Tactical Fighter Wing redesignated as the 401st Fighter Wing on 1 October 1991 at Torrejon, it did not convert to the Objective Wing model until moving to Aviano. Its conversion at Aviano was directed by DAF/MO Letter 299r, 2 May 1992, Subject: Organization Actions Affecting Certain United States Air Forces Europe Units. This letter constituted a new 401st Logistics Group, redesignated the 401st Combat Support Group as the 401st Support Group and the 401st TFW Hospital as the 401st Medical Squadron, but did not redesignate or activate an Operations Group for the wing.
In view of the fact that the post 2006 401st AEG had been active longer than the brief period, I have added a hatnote but think consideration should be given to moving the wing here and returning the group to its Fighter-Bomber designation --

For the above reasons, the group and wing are the same unit and have alternated their designations three times.-- Lineagegeek ( talk) 19:21, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
