The 521st Air Expeditionary Advisor Squadron is part of the Multi-National Security Transition Command – Iraq Coalition Air Force Training Team, and is based at Kirkuk AB, Iraq. Inactivated on 11 Jan 2010.

The 521st AEAS is an integral part of building and maintaining the Iraqi Air Force, and bolstering the effectiveness of the Iraqi Ministry of Defense. The squadron is made up of maintenance, air traffic control and weapons loading. They also advise the Iraqi Air Force in day-to-day operations.

The squadron operates C-208B Caravan aircraft conducting flight training for members of the Iraqi Air Force. Their mission is to train, educate and advise professional Iraqi Airmen in order to build the institutional capacity to conduct credible fixed flight training for the Iraqi Air Force.

The AEAS consists of 30 operations and maintenance advisors that work together with Iraqi Squadron 3 that consist of 30 pilots and 60 maintainers.

The Iraqi Air Force performs Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance missions in the AC-208B Caravan which is a very powerful system that can provide images in full color and the infrared spectrum which gives it the capability for day and night missions.

 

Providing equipment for emergency situations is a key element for a successful air force, and CAFTT is training Iraqi maintainers in the operation of air crew systems from the ground up to help them develop their skills.
