The Missouri Air National Guard (MO ANG) is the aerial militia of the State of Missouri, United States of America. It is a reserve of the United States Air Force and along with the Missouri Army National Guard an element of the Missouri National Guard of the larger United States National Guard Bureau.

As state militia units, the units in the Missouri Air National Guard are not in the normal United States Air Force chain of command. They are under the jurisdiction of the Governor of Missouri through the office of the Missouri Adjutant General unless they are federalized by order of the President of the United States. The Missouri Air National Guard is headquartered at Rosecrans Air National Guard Base, St. Joseph, and its commander is currently Major General Levon E. Cumpton. [1]
