An Air Wing is composed of all Viper squadrons, Raptors and support ships assigned to a battlestar.
The Air Wing is commanded by the battlestar's senior pilot who is known as the Commander, Air Group, generally referred to as "CAG". The term Air Group is only used in the title of the CAG as in practise the Viper and Raptor force is called the Air Wing (Pegasus).

Notes[edit]
- The term Air Group is technically obsolete in the U.S. Air Force and Navy as Air Groups are now known as Air Wings.
- The above fact is reflected in Battlestar Galactica due a statement made by Admiral Helena Cain in "Pegasus".
