The 45th Space Wing (45 SW) is a wing of the United States Air Force based at Patrick Air Force Base, Florida, whose mission is to assure access to the high frontier and to support global operations. The 45th was established as an anti-submarine warfare unit in 1941, providing support during operations in the Atlantic during part of World War II. The wing currently operates a number of rockets and missiles, including the Delta IV and Atlas V, and provides support for the Department of Defense, NASA, and commercial manned and unmanned space programs. The wing formerly operated the recently-discontinued Titan IV rocket.
