The 86th Maintenance Group (86 MXG) is part of the 86th Airlift Wing at Ramstein Air Base, Germany (USAFE). It is responsible for the maintenance and sortie generation of intra- and inter-theater airlift aircraft such as the C-130J Super Hercules, as well as Distinguished Visitor Airlift aircraft like the C-20H, C-21A, C-37A and C-40B. It is key part of the vibrant Kaiserslautern Military Community and our vision is “Dominance Through Development.” 

The C-130J Super Hercules is a four-engine turboprop military transport aircraft. The C-130J is a comprehensive update of the C-130 Hercules, with new engines, flight deck, and other systems. The Hercules family has the longest continuous production run of any military aircraft in history. During more than 50 years of service, the family has participated in military, civilian, and humanitarian aid operations.
