German Air Force Air Defense Center

German Air Force Air Defense Center

Das Taktische Aus- und Weiterbildungszentrum Flugabwehrraketen der Luftwaffe USA (TaktAusbWbZ FlaRakLw USA; englisch: German Air Force Air Defense Center) ist eine Ausbildungseinrichtung der Bundeswehr am US-amerikanischen Standort Fort Bliss in El Paso (Texas).

Die Dienststelle ist die Nachfolgeinstitution der ehemaligen Raketenschule der Luftwaffe USA (RakSLw USA, englisch: German Air Force Air Defense School) und wurde nach deren Auflösung am 1. April 2005 in Dienst gestellt. Sie ist nach dem Fliegerischen Ausbildungszentrum Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexiko die zweitgrößte Ausbildungseinrichtung der deutschen Luftwaffe.

Bereits vor der Verlegung der 1964 gegründeten Raketenschule der Luftwaffe im Jahr 1966 von Aachen nach Fort Bliss wurden dort seit 1956 deutsche Soldaten an Flugabwehrraketensystemen bei der US Anti-Aircraft Artillery and Guided Missile School (später: US Army Air Defense School) der United States Army geschult. Die Ausbildung erfolgte an den FlaRak-Systemen Nike (Nike Ajax und Nike Hercules), Hawk und Patriot. Mittlerweile wird nur noch auf dem Waffensystem Patriot ausgebildet.
