At the end of the
Cold War elements of the
United States Air Force in Europe consisted of the following units, which in case of war with the
Warsaw Pact would have been assigned to
NATO .
This article list all United States Air Force units based in Europe on 30 June 1989 and, where required, lists changes that occurred during 1989. The primary source for this listing of units is O.W. Dragoner's United States Air Force 1989 , with additions and amendments from the official fact sheets of the
Air Force Historical Research Agency . Where the two sources disagree, AFHRA data has been used.

Twenty-Third Air Force
At the beginning of 1989 the US Air Force's special forces and air rescue units were under command of Twenty-Third Air Force. As Twenty-Third Air Force's two types of units did not fit well together the Air Force decided to split it in two. In August 1989
Search and Rescue (SAR) units were moved to the newly established
Air Rescue Service , which came under direct command of MAC, while special forces remained under Twenty-Third Air Force, which was redesignated
Air Force Special Operations Command and elevated to major command on 22 May 1990.
[32]
[33] Here below only units of Twenty-Third Air Force are listed which were based in Europe.
