24th TASS

Feel free to discuss anything here - as long as it is F-16 related.

Following up from the old thread about some of Hill's F-16s being re-homed and a number of them finding their way to the 24th TASS, I wonder if anyone can shed any light on what is currently going on with this squadron?

Viperimages suggested in that thread that the squadron was actually shutting down already, barely 3 years after activation. I also notice in the database that a number of the aircraft assigned to 24 TASS have been moved on again, to 16 WS.

I found their set up and mission to be really interesting after their first announcement and the promo video, but have heard virtually nothing about them since bar the odd photo. Anyone know if they're still a thing?!

Still listed on the 57WG inventory; https://www.nellis.af.mil/Units/57-WG/
But clearly lost its fighters as no jets are assigned anymore.
Wouldn't be surprised if it was re-designated CTS instead of TASS
Best regards
