Air Transport Wing 62 (German: Lufttransportgeschwader 62) is a wing of the German Air Force (Luftwaffe). The wing was founded in 1959 and is currently based at Wunstorf Air Base in Lower-Saxony, Germany operating Airbus A400M fixed-wing aircraft. Air Transport Wing 62 is subordinate to Air Force Troop Command which in turn is subordinate to Air Force Command. Operational command rests, however, with European Air Transport Command.
Although the wing's main task is tactical air transport, it has been widely employed in various humanitarian aid missions since 1960.
