The 309th Missile Maintenance Group (MMXG) provides depot-level maintenance and support to America's land-based Intercontinental Ballistic Missile force and to the Air Launched Cruise Missile force. Four geographically separated units provide on-site depot-level maintenance, repair and modifications of 450 Minuteman III launch facilities and 45 missile alert facilities spread across five states. The group plans and directs repair of ICBM operational ground equipment, transportation and handling equipment, reentry systems and unique support equipment. It controls movement, provides storage for Minuteman III weapon system boosters, and performs static firing and depot-level maintenance for the Minuteman III weapon system. Accountable assets are tracked for the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty by the group. The group also conducts strategic and tactical rocket motor propellant dissection and analysis, tests missile integrated systems, repairs shelters and radomes, and performs Radar Cross Section characterization testing of aircraft and flight hardware.
