Medium Transport Helicopter Regiment 25 (German: Mittleres Transporthubschrauberregiment 25) was a regiment in the German Army, part of the German Army Aviation Corps. It was based at Kurt Georg Kiesinger Barracks on Laupheim Air Base in the German state of Baden Württemberg, Southern Germany. The regiment was founded in 1971 and disbanded on 31 December 2012. Its sister regiment was Medium Transport Helicopter Regiment 15 based at Rheine Air Base.

On 1 January 2013 the unit was re-established as Helicopter Wing 64 of the German Air Force, integrating those parts of the already existing Helicopter Wing 64 that were not handed over to the German Army.[1]
