The 1st Maintenance Group provides aircraft maintenance for one of Air Combat Command's largest wings, with more than 30 associate organizations and Headquarters ACC.

The 1 MXG is responsible for worldwide rapid deployment and employment of combat-ready/mission-capable F-22 Raptor that is new to Langley, as the first operational F-22 squadrons receive their complement of Raptors.

The men and women of the 1 MXG maximize resources for three on-and off-aircraft maintenance squadrons while overseeing the combat training of maintenance personnel. They also direct sortie generation events and orchestrate long-term fleet health programs for aircraft management. The 1 MXG is responsible for four squadrons with more than 1950 personnel, a $193-million flying program budget, $3-million operations and maintenance budget, more than 58 facilities, nearly 100 work centers and 125 vehicles. The group is proud to support the Air Force's newest air supremacy fighter, the F-22 Raptor.

The 1 MXG organizations are:

1st Aircraft Maintenance Squadron
The 1 AMXS is the focal point for the 1 FW's combat sortie generation operations. The 1 AMXS directs the efforts of 814 aircraft maintenance and support personnel; manages a $23-million equipment inventory to sustain more than 25 F-22 aircraft valued at $2.3 billion; and ensures mission-capable aircraft are available to support the wing's yearly flying-hour program, deploy for combat training exercises and meet contingency operations.

In addition, the 1 MXS maintains a combat-ready wing of F-22 aircraft and support equipment prepared to mobilize, deploy and sustain worldwide combat/contingency air-superiority operations in support of two fighter squadrons; performs all structural and armament system maintenance, corrosion prevention and aircraft painting; and stores, maintains and builds most sophisticated munitions in the Air Force inventory, including the AIM-120.

1st Maintenance Operations Squadron
The 1 MOS is the 1 FW's focal point for maintaining the combat readiness of its F-22 fleet and the combat readiness of the maintenance group aviators. The 1 MOS manages instructional qualification program for F-22 Raptor aircraft, and all maintenance-related AFSCs and the wing skill level upgrade and Status of Training programs.
