context_page_description: The 52d Expeditionary Flying Training Squadron is part of the Iraq Training and Advisory Mission - Air Force and is based at Camp Speicher, Tikrit, Iraq. It operates Beechcraft T-6A Texan II aircraft conducting flight training for members of the Iraqi Air Force.
  It was tasked to train, educate and advise Iraqi Airmen in order to build the institutional capacity to conduct credible fixed and rotary wing flight training for the Iraqi Air Force. In late 2011, all U.S. forces were withdrawn from Iraq and the squadron was probably inactivated.
