Specifically the 105th Tactical Air Support Group will change its mission from tactical air operations using twin engine propeller driven aircraft to a military airlift mission using Boeing 747 aircraft. Simultaneously a Marine Corps Reserve Unit will be formed for the purpose of tactical aerial refueling using KC-130 turboprop transports. These two units will occupy existing and newly built facilities in the southeast corner of Stewart Airport. A total of three 747 and 12 KC-130 aircraft are scheduled to operate at Stewart Airport.
