Vision
Develop the 95th Wing and remember who we represent.
Units
National Airborne Operations Center
The National Airborne Operations Center (NAOC) operates aboard the E-4B Nightwatch and is a key component of the National Military Command System for the President, the Secretary of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff. In case of national emergency or destruction of ground command and control centers, the NAOC provides a highly survivable command, control and communications center to direct United States forces, execute emergency war orders and coordinate actions by civil authorities.
253rd Command and Control Group
The 253rd Command and Control Group (CACG) (comprised of the 153rd Command and Control Squadron, 253rd Support Squadron and 253rd Security Forces Squadron), part of the Wyoming Air National Guard at F.E. Warren Air Force Base, Wyoming, provides a mobile, survivable and endurable command and control, communications and intelligence (C4I) capability to the U.S.
1st Airborne Command and Control Squadron
The 1st Airborne Command Control Squadron (ACCS) is one of the oldest in the United States Air Force. The 1st ACCS mission is to train and equip aircrew for the NAOC and to provide the National Command Authorities with a survivable command center from which they may make accurate decisions and transmit timely directions to U.S. military forces during all conditions of peace and war.
595th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron
The 595th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron (AMXS) organizes, trains and resources Airmen to maintain, generate and sustain constant state strategic deterrence by providing four safe, reliable E-4B aircraft to execute command and control (C2) operations globally. Additionally, the 595th AMXS provides ground support and a 65-room alert billeting facility at an operating location at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio.
595th Strategic Communications Squadron
The 595th Strategic Communications Squadron provides technically skilled Airmen enabling global strike by providing real-time and secure nuclear-survivable missile warning and command, control and communications (C3) capabilities. They program, operate and maintain the Strategic Automated Command Control System, providing rapid re-targeting of intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), Force Distribution and Emergency Action Messaging capabilities, and operate the sole depot repair authority supporting 252 global sites. Additionally, the two 24/7 operations centers operated and maintained by the squadron process more than 84 million U.S. Strategic Command messages a year.
610th Command and Control Squadron
The Air Force Reserve Command’s 610th Command and Control Squadron (CACS) provides premier command, control and communications training, evaluation and exercise support to the Joint Staff and combatant commands to enhance tactics, techniques, and procedures, and serve as a testbed for new communication systems to enhance capabilities from an operating location at Davis-Monthan AFB, Arizona.
625th Strategic Operations Squadron
The 625th Strategic Operations Squadron (STOS) executes and supports global strike through continuous, rapid, accurate and survivable nuclear operations. The team of operators, engineers, maintainers and computer systems personnel enable launching ICBMs while airborne in a U.S. Navy E-6B Mercury. The 625th STOS is also responsible for maintaining current and accurate targeting for the nation’s ICBM fleet.
