Patrol and Reconnaissance Wing 2

A Patrol Wing (PatWing) was a United States Navy aviation unit with the commander of a Patrol Wing known as the Commodore, the ComPatWing or COMPATWING. From 1 November 1942 to 30 June 1973 Patrol Wings were designated "Fleet Air Wings". On 26 March 1999 all then existing Pacific Fleet Patrol Wings were redesignated Patrol and Reconnaissance Wings and on 1 June 1999 all then existing Atlantic Fleet Patrol Wings were redesigned Patrol and Reconnaissance Wings with the Commodore designated as COMPATRECONWING or ComPatReconWing.

Currently, there are two Patrol and Reconnaissance Wings in the U.S. Navy:

Lineage: Patrol Wing 10(2nd), Patrol and Reconnaissance Wing 10.

Patrol and Reconnaissance Wing TEN is located at NAS Whidbey Island, Washington. It was established at NAS Moffett Field, California as Patrol Wing TEN (the third Wing to use either the Patrol Wing or Fleet Air Wing TEN designation) on 1 June 1981, the wing relocated to NAS Whidbey Island on 1 July 1994 and currently consists of VP-1, VP-4, VP-9, VP-40, VP-46, VP-47, VQ-1 and VPU-2.VP-9 and VP-47, were transferred to Commander, Patrol and Reconnaissance Forces, US Pacific Fleet (formerly Commander, Patrol Wings, Pacific) in Hawaii in 1994 but returned to the wing in 2016 and 2017 when the successor to Commander, Patrol and Reconnaissance Forces, US Pacific Fleet, Patrol and Reconnaissance Wing TWO, was disestablished. Former squadrons were VP-19 and VP-48, which were inactivated during the Navy's post-Cold War drawdown in the mid-1990s; and VQ-2, which was merged into VQ-1 in 2011. Although not part of the wing, the Navy Reserve's VP-69 which is part of the Navy Reserve's "Maritime Support Wing" is also located at NAS Whidbey Island. Also not part of the wing, VP-31, the Pacific Fleet Replacement Squadron (FRS) for the P-3B, P-3C and EP-3E, was also located at NAS Moffett Field and was disestablished as part of that installation's BRAC closure.
