Excerpt: The United States Air Force 's 105th Airlift Wing is an Air National Guard airlift unit operationally-gained by the Air Mobility Command and located at Stewart ANGB, New York. Mission To provide airlift operations to worldwide locations in peacetime and in war. History The 105th was organized on May 1, 1958 as the 105th Tactical Fighter Group (105 TFG) of the New York Air National Guard. In 1961, it became the 105th Aeromedical Transport Group and subsequently became part of Military Air Transport Service (MATS) and the subsequent Military Airlift Command (MAC). Throughout the 1960s and 70s, the unit received and flew different aircraft with which to fly its mission. In 1987, the unit prepared to move to its present home at Stewart Air National Guard Base. On May 1, 1984, it was redesignated the 105th Military Airlift Group. In July 1985 the unit made the largest leap, in terms of size, of aircraft possible. The unit changed from a Tactical Air Support Group flying the O-2A Skymaster to a Military Airlift Group flying the C-5A Galaxy. It was later redesignated as a Military Airlift Wing, followed by its current designation as the 105th Airlift Wing (105 AW).Over the years the 105 AW has flown numerous humanitarian missions as well as supporting operations for the military.
