Air Mobility Command (AMC) is a Major Command (MAJCOM) of the U.S. Air Force. AMC is headquartered at Scott AFB, Illinois, east of St. Louis.

The commander of AMC is General Raymond E. Johns, Jr., with II as Vice-commander, and Spector as Command Chief Master Sergeant.

Air Mobility Command was established on 1 June 1992. It was formed from elements of the inactivated Military Airlift Command (MAC) and Strategic Air Command (SAC). AMC melded a worldwide airlift system (MAC) with a tanker force (SAC) that had been freed from its commitments by the collapse of the Soviet Union.
