The 436th Aerial Port Squadron at Dover Air Force Base is the Department of Defense's largest aerial gateway, processing hundreds of aircraft each month for U.S. European Command and U.S. Central Command.

This unit supports diverse missions, including humanitarian efforts and foreign military sales, necessitating collaboration across multiple agencies. Cargo undergoes strict safety inspections, and operations demand real-time decision-making to balance military sales with airlift priorities.

The squadron invests in its Airmen, empowering them to make impactful decisions. Effective planning and strong relationships enable the 436th APS to execute complex missions efficiently.
