Since the start of the ISAF operation Germany supported continously the air transport missions in the theatre with four to eight C-160 Transall from his three transport wings.
With those Transall protected air transport of personnel and material was conducted and the transport of wounded within the theatre was ensured.
In the beginning the airplanes were stationed in Termez, Uzbekistan and from August 2008 on they were transferred to Mazar-e-Sharif in Afghanistan.
Since the October 1 2008 the strategic air transport to and from
Afghanistan was conducted directly to Masar-e-Sharif airport. Within
Afghanistan the air transport is centralized organized with a pool of
airplanes of the international partners.

Transport Wing 61 from Penzing. A short time later in a second step the
