Based the needs and outcomes onf the project I figured they would have
McDonnell Douglas MD 500 Defender (Gunships and Team Lift)
Bell 204/205 (Gunships, Cargo, Team Lift, MEDVAC)
Bell 214ST (Cargo, Team Lift, MEDVAC)
Cessna O-2 Skymaster (Recon MEDVAC)
Boeing CH-47 Chinook (Heavy Cargo, MARS Support)
Beechcraft T-34 Mentor (Comand and Control, High Speed Personel Transport)
These would be grouped in a Wing and assigned as area assets, the number of the aircraft would depend on missions of near by teams.
Bolthole and Cache locations would be near small regional civilian airports, you might also see a small engieering team boltholed near by so that they could help with runway repair if needed. Given the ammount of people you need to run air operations, the project would have cluster it's boltholes around an airport.
I think an large cargo aircraft like the C-130 would be held at Prime Base, and forward deployed as need.
Here is two other aircraft that project might find usefull. I see them being used an airforce version of a MARS Team
Piper PA-48 Enforcer
Boeing Skyfox
