922d Tactical Airlift Group The 922d Tactical Airlift Group is an inactive United States Air Force Reserve unit . It was last active with the 433d Tactical Airlift Wing , based at Kelly Air Force Base , Texas . It was inactivated on 1 November 1994 . History . Following the mobilizations in 1961 and 1962 for the Berlin Crisis and the Cuban Missile Crisis , Continental Air Command ( ConAC ) realized that it was unwieldy to mobilize an entire wing unless absolutely necessary . Their original Table of Organization for each Wing was a wing headquarters , a troop carrier group , an Air Base Group , a maintenance and supply group , and a medical group . In 1957 , the troop carrier group and maintenance and supply groups were inactivated , with their squadrons reassigned directly to the wing headquarters - despite the fact that many wings had squadrons spread out over several bases due to the Detached Squadron Concept dispersing Reserve units over centers of population . To resolve this , in late 1962 and early 1963 , ConAC reorganized the structure of its reserve Troop Carrier Wings by establishing fully deployable Troop Carrier Groups and inserting them into the chain of command between the Wing and its squadrons at every base that held a ConAC troop carrier squadron . At each base , the group was composed of a material squadron , a troop carrier squadron , a tactical hospital or dispensary , and a combat support squadron . Each troop carrier wing consisted of 3 or 4 of these groups . By doing so , ConAC could facilitate the mobilization of either aircraft and aircrews alone , aircraft and minimum support personnel ( one troop carrier group ) , or the entire troop carrier wing . This also gave ConAC the flexibility to expand each Wing by attaching additional squadrons , if necessary from other Reserve wings to the deployable groups for deployments . As a result , the 922d Troop Carrier Group was established with a mission to organize , recruit and train Air Force Reserve personnel in the tactical airlift of airborne forces , their equipment and supplies and delivery of these forces and materials by airdrop , landing or cargo extraction systems . The group was equipped with C - 119 Flying Boxcar s for Tactical Air Command airlift operations . The group was one of three C - 119 groups assigned to the 433d TCW in 1963 , the others being the 921st Troop Carrier Group , also at Kelly AFB , and the 923d Troop Carrier Group at Carswell Air Force Base , Texas . Trained throughout the 1960s with the Flying Boxcar . In 1971 , the groups aged aircraft were retired , and replaced by more modern C - 130A Hercules transports . It participated in conducting the USAF ' s C - 130A model Hercules pilot , navigator , flight engineer and loadmaster school . It also trained for tactical airlift missions , participating in joint training exercises . It provided airlift of Department of Defense personnel , supplies , and equipment worldwide . Inactivated in June 1974 , with personnel and aircraft being assigned to the 921st TAG at Kelly AFB .

The Armadillo was designed in 1917 by Armstrong Whitworth ' s new chief designer , Fred Murphy , as a private venture single - seat fighter powered by a Bentley BR2 rotary engine . While the design met the requirements of Air Board Specification A1 ( a ) for a replacement for the Sopwith Camel , it was principally produced to test the abilities of Armstrong Whitworth ' s new design team , and was not considered a serious competitor for the requirement . Despite this , Armstrong Whitworth was granted a licence in January 1918 to allow construction of two prototypes . The aircraft was a two - bay biplane with a square section fuselage . The engine in the nose was enclosed by a circular cowl with a deep hump above the cowl housing two . 303 in ( 7 . 7 mm ) Vickers machine gun s . The first prototype made its maiden flight during April 1918 . The type was not subject to formal evaluation by the Air Ministry , with the poor view from the cockpit being criticised . By the time the Armadillo appeared the Sopwith Snipe , powered by the same engine and faster was already in large scale production and Murphy had started work on the more advanced Ara fighter , so the Armadillo was abandoned , the second prototype not being completed .
