The New Hampshire Air National Guard (NH ANG) is the aerial militia of the U.S. state of New Hampshire. It is a reserve of the United States Air Force and along with the New Hampshire Army National Guard, an element of the New Hampshire National Guard of the much larger United States National Guard Bureau.
As state militia units, the units in the NH ANG are not in the normal United States Air Force chain of command. They are under the jurisdiction of the Governor of New Hampshire through the office of the Adjutant General of New Hampshire, unless they are federalized by order of the President of the United States. The NH ANG is headquartered in Newington, with a postal address of Portsmouth.
