Established in 1978 as the 175th Tactical Fighter Squadron flying F-15A’s, the 175th was Realigned to Tankers in summer of 1993 and would only become fully qualified weeks before hostilities broke out between Osea and Belka in 1994. The Genies would prove to be vital in the opening days, allowing for extended operations to retake land lost early on in the war, eventually before being relieved on May 15th 1995 having flown nearly 7000 combat hours in their part of the eighteen week campaign.
Following the war, the Genies would go on to support Post-Ulysses relief efforts in Usea in 2000, and again would deploy to Usea in 2005 following the Continental war.
In 2010 the Unit would be called up to support patrols along the North Osean border with Belka, and would be deployed to Adygea in 2014 to support Wargame exercises being conducted in the country. Today the Genies still operate out of Braunstein.
