414th CAMS

The 414th Component Aircraft Maintenance Squadron (CAMS) was a United States Air Force unit primarily responsible for the maintenance and support of assigned aircraft components. Activated during the late Cold War period, the 414th CAMS was most notably stationed at Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico, where it supported the 49th Tactical Fighter Wing. The squadron played a critical role in ensuring the operational readiness of F-15 Eagles and later F-117 Nighthawk stealth fighters through expert maintenance and logistical support. In the early 1990s, as part of Air Force restructuring and the adoption of the Objective Wing organization, the 414th CAMS was inactivated and its functions were absorbed by other maintenance units.
