The 368th Expeditionary Air Support Operations Group (368 EASOG) is a support unit of the United States Air Force. It was located at an undisclosed location in Iraq (possibly Joint Base Balad). It supported Multi-National Corps - Iraq. The 368 EASOG provides overall tactical Command and Control of air power assets to the Joint Forces Air Component Commander and Joint Forces Land Component Commander for combat operations.

As of 26 July 2010, it comprised two subordinate units:

  • 22d Expeditionary Weather Squadron
  • 82d Expeditionary Air Support Operations Squadron – the 82 EASOS provided Tactical Command and Control of air power assets to the Joint Forces Air Component Commander and Joint Forces Land Component Commander for combat operations.
  • The group was inactivated on 22 December 2011 following the withdraw of US forces from Iraq and the cessation of Operation New Dawn.
