Providing worldwide airlift for the most senior United States government and military leaders has been the primary mission of numerous organizations spanning each of the military services. These leaders have relied on these aircraft as flying offices while abroad, allowing them to engage wherever US national interests lie. Over the years, this fleet has grown and developed on an ad hoc basis. The primary fleet, owned and operated by the 89th Airlift Wing at Andrews AFB, has the primary mission of airlifting the President, Vice President, and other national and international leaders. Because these aircraft were often unavailable for senior military members from the sister services, the Army and Navy each established a detachment of business jet type aircraft to fill their own needs. Additionally, the various Commanders-in-Chief of the unified and specified commands have a variety of aircraft at their disposal to oversee operations in their specific areas of responsibility. Thus, Chapter one serves as the introduction to current SAM operations, outlining each of the units, their primary customers, and their aircraft.
