401st AGS, 614th AMU

The 401st Aircraft Generation Squadron (AGS), specifically its 614th Aircraft Maintenance Unit (AMU), played a pivotal role during the late Cold War period and into the 1990s. Stationed at Torrejon Air Base, Spain, the 614th AMU was responsible for the maintenance and generation of F-16 Fighting Falcon aircraft assigned to the 614th Tactical Fighter Squadron. The unit supported NATO operations, rapid deployment exercises, and provided critical airpower during contingency operations in Europe and the Mediterranean. The 401st AGS and its 614th AMU were inactivated in the mid-1990s as part of the post-Cold War force reductions and the closure of Torrejon AB.
