515th Air Mobility Operations Wing

The 515th Air Mobility Operations Wing (AMOW), headquartered at Joint Base Pearl Harbor‐Hickam, HI, oversees Air Mobility Command’s en route support structure at 26 diverse locations across 105 million
square miles in the Pacific Area of Responsibility.

The AMOW contains two geographically separated Air Mobility Operations Groups (AMOGs): the 515th AMOG located at Yokota AB, Japan and the 715th AMOG located at Joint Base Elmendorf‐Richardson, AK. These AMOGs combined consist of six Air Mobility Squadrons (AMS) and multiple detachments and operating locations throughout the Pacific. The 515th AMOW works with US Pacific Command, Pacific Air Forces, United States Forces Korea, United States Forces Japan, and Alaskan Command to execute theatre air mobility operations and capabilities.
