According to its just released vision statement (see above), the Air Force plans to create a new “cyber command” to expand upon the service’s leading role in cyberspace. We quote: “The Air Force will stand up a “cyber command” to lead its airmen to victory on the digital battlefield. This new command will have offensive capabilities and deliberate target sets, and will be at the vanguard of protecting the nation from an electronic “Pearl Harbor.”
Air Force depots are not typically meant for quick repair jobs, but during Operation Epic Fury, the service moved some of its stateside heavy maintenance capability forward to fix battle-damaged aircraft closer to the fight.
