L'Air Mobility Command, un des principaux commandements dont le quartier general est installe a Scott Air Force Base,
Illinois, fut cree le premier Juin 1992.
L'AMC fournit les moyens de deploiement mondial dont a besoin l'Amerique.
Cette mobilite rapide, souple et efficace entraîne une certaine stabilite des regions a tensions
en maintenant en evidence les capacites de riposte immediate des Etats-Unis d'Amerique.
La mission principale de l'Air Mobility Command est la capacite de deploiement et de ravitaillement rapides et mondiaux
des forces armees americaines.
Il joue egalement un rôle crucial dans l'apport de soutien humanitaire tant aux USA que partout dans le monde.
Les hommes et femmes de l'Air Mobility Command (actifs, Air National Guard, Air Force Reserve et civils)
permettent le transport tactique et strategique et le ravitaillement en vol de toutes les forces armees americaines.
De nombreuses missions speciales de support operationnel ou d'evacuation medicale sont egalement prises en charge par l'AMC.
Les forces U.S. doivent etre capables d'apporter une reponse rapide et graduee aevc la capacite d'intervenir
contre un ennemi bien equipe, frapper fort et en terminer rapidement.
Une mobilite mondiale rapide est au coeur de la strategie US dans l'environnement actuel.
Sans capacite de projection des forces, il n'y a pas de dissuasion.
