The 44th Aviation Division (Serbo-Croatian: 44. vazduhoplovna divizija/ 44. ваздухопловна дивизија) was a unit originally established in 1945 as the 3rd Aviation Fighter Division (Serbo-Croatian: 3. vazduhoplovna lovačka divizija / 3. ваздухопловна ловачка дивизија).

History

3rd Fighter Aviation Division

The 3rd Fighter Aviation Division was established by order from August 3, 1945, with headquarters at Mostar. The division was direct under the Command of Yugoslav Air Force. It consisted from 254th Fighter and 112th Fighter Aviation Regiment.

Because of the crisis at Northwest of county, division has been dislocated to Novi Sad by Spring of 1946, and to Ljubljana by Summer-Autumn same year. On 9 August 1946 a pair of Yak-3 aircraft from 254th Regiment piloted by the Lieutenant Dragan Zečević and Warrant Officer Dragan Stanisavljević have open fire and hit USAF C-47 which has violated Yugoslav airspace flow over Ljubljana airport at 12 p.m. which has forced landing 12 km near Kranj. One passenger, Turkish captain was wounded by hit, while crew and passengers were captured by Yugoslav Army. Later it was released by August 22, and the tension made with this incident and another one shooting down of USAF C-47 with fatal consequences for whole crew of five airman was reduce after Marshal Tito ordered to pay $150.000 to families of killed US airman. By winter division with its regiments has moved to Mostar and than again in 1947 across Novi Sad to Ljubljana and Cerklje where it stayed during late 1947 and 1948.

By the 1948 year this division was renamed like all other units of Yugoslav Army, so it has become 44th Fighter Aviation Division (Serbo-Croatian: 44. vazduhoplovna lovačka divizija/ 44. ваздухопловна ловачка дивизија).

The commanders of division in this period were Petar Radević and Hinko Šoić. Commissars were Milutin Omazić and Svetozar Radojević.[1]

The 44th Fighter Aviation Division was formed by renaming of 3rd Fighter Aviation Division in 1948. It suffered a changes in the organization. Division has moved from Cerklje in 1949 to Zemun and finally to new build Batajnica Air Base in 1951 where it has stayed until it was disbanded.

In 1953 division was attached to 7th Aviation Corps. It has relocated its headquarters from Zagreb to Cerklje. By 1953 it was renamed in to Aviation Fighter-Bomber Division due the replace of Soviet fighter aircraft with US-made fighter-bombers.

It was disbanded by the order from June 27, 1959, year due the "Drvar" reorganization plan. It was transformed into 1st Air Command.
