Real World Changes to MAIW packages

Post by MIKE JG »

Use this thread to post updates or changes to MAIW packages that have occurred in the real world due to military realignments, base closures, cutbacks, etc.

This will help us all keep our sims a little bit more organized and up to date.

Please also post which MAIW package or packages are affected by the changes.

No worries. Here's an additional one from FY2016.

Aside from additions of F-15s to various units, the big FY16 move is this one:

(various MAIW Air National Guard packages)

All USAF RC-26s were scheduled to be assigned to the 198th Airlift Squadron, Puerto Rico Air National Guard. The 198th's six C-130s were scheduled to be dispersed as backup aircraft (BAI) to the following units (two each), so they can be removed from the sim unless you want them flying:
- 139th Airlift Squadron, Schenectady County Airport NY (New York ANG)
- 154th Training Squadron, Little Rock AFB AR (Arkansas ANG)
- 180th Airlift Squadron, Rosecrans Memorial Airport MO (Missouri ANG)

The 198th's page notes the transition, but I'm working to verify that it happened.

No worries!

A slight amendment to the last post: Of the 11 RC-26s, nine were to go to Puerto Rico and two were to go to Kirtland AFB for the FTU, presumably to a unit of the 150th Special Operations Wing, New Mexico Air National Guard.

The following is a summary of changes to the C-130 force structure for the next three years:

- All remaining H-model C-130s will be removed from the Active Duty force and either transferred to the Reserve/Guard, retired or sold.

- The previously announced transfer of ten C-130Js from Keesler AFB MS to Little Rock AFB AR has been cancelled. The 815th Airlift Squadron (AFRC) remains at Keesler. The 327th Airlift Squadron (AFRC) at Little Rock will become an associate unit to an active-duty unit and will own no aircraft.

- Active-duty units will each be assigned 14 C-130Js. These units are the 41st and 61st airlift squadrons at Little Rock AFB AR, the 39th and 40th airlift squadrons at Dyess AFB TX and the 37th Airlift Squadron (USAFE) at Ramstein AB Germany.

- The 36th Airlift Squadron (PACAF) at Yokota AB Japan is transitioning from the -H to the -J and should have 14 C-130Js by the end of 2017.

- The -J formal training unit will be the active-duty 62d Airlift Squadron (AETC) at Little Rock AFB AR and will have 14 C-130Js.

- The -H formal training unit will be the 154th Training Squadron (Arkansas ANG) at Little Rock AFB AR and will have 14 C-130Hs (12 primary and two BAI aircraft).

- Because of the active-duty divestiture of the C-130H, the 48th Airlift Squadron has inactivated.

- The 135th Intelligence Squadron (Maryland ANG) will transition and receive eight C-130Js in FY18.

- Except for the aforementioned 815 AS at Keesler, all Reserve and Air National Guard units will have eight aircraft assigned to them. Exceptions are noted in the next line.

- With the transition of the Puerto Rico ANG from the WC-130H to the RC-26 noted in my earlier post, the BAI aircraft dispersal is correct. These aircraft, all C-130Hs will be flying. New York's -130s will augment its four LC-130s. Missouri's -130s will support the Weapons Instructor Course and its existing eight C-130Hs. Arkansas's will support the -H formal training unit as stated earlier in this post.

- The 156th Airlift Squadron (North Carolina ANG) will lose two C-130Hs in FY17, resulting in the unit having eight aircraft.

- One C-130J will be assigned as BAI to an active-duty unit at both Little Rock AFB AR and Dyess AFB TX in FY19.

Great find, I was trying to check my Little Rock package and bring it up to speed to current assignments, and I was WAY off.
