513th Avionics Maintenance Squadron

The 513th Avionics Maintenance Squadron was an integral unit of the United States Air Force, responsible for maintaining and repairing avionics systems that ensured operational readiness of various aircraft. Activated during the Cold War era, the squadron primarily supported electronic systems on strategic bombers and reconnaissance aircraft stationed at their assigned base. Throughout its service, the 513th played a crucial role in sustaining the technological edge of U.S. air operations, particularly in support of Strategic Air Command missions. The squadron was eventually inactivated as part of Air Force restructuring and modernization efforts in the post-Cold War period.
