New Air Force Secretary Michael Wynne believes people must stop viewing the word “recapitalization” as synonymous with aircraft. He told Air Force journalist MSgt. Mitch Gettle earlier this week that more within the service needs recapitalization. “Where we know we have advanced technologies, we want to introduce them; where we know we have emerging missions, we want to satisfy them,” explained Wynne. Where the rubber meets the airfield for Wynne, though, is in having data upon which to base “credible decisions.”
Officials at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Fla., said the range is “fully mission capable” to support launches following a major May 28 mishap involving Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket.
