Why REACH
Air Mobility Command is the US Air Force's airlift and tanker command, and REACH comes from Global Reach, the motto its predecessor Military Airlift Command flew under. AMC transport and tanker missions fly as REACH followed by a mission number.
Headquartered at Scott Air Force Base in Illinois, the Air Mobility Command is a major command of the United States Air Force utilizing the globally recognized 'Reach' callsign. Established in 1992, AMC provides crucial rapid global mobility, sustaining U.S. military operations through strategic airlift, aerial refueling, and aeromedical evacuation missions. The command operates a massive and diverse military fleet, including C-17 Globemasters, C-130 Hercules, and KC-135 Stratotankers.
