    What did a USN carrier air wing look like in the post-war era?

    So I've been randomly looking into post-war era aviation, before air to air missiles generally ruined everything for everyone. In one decade the USN fielded a bewildering array of aircraft. I've found references to how the Carrier Air Wing looked in part of the Korea era, 1 to 2 squadrons of...

    The Race's MilTech level
