Air Force Space Command plans to redesignate one unit and inactivate several organizations today toward redefining 14th Air Force into a new component-numbered air force named 14th Air Force (Air Forces Strategic-Space). The space C-NAF element gaining a new designation is the 614th Space Operations Group, now called the 614th Air and Space Operations Center. The units being deactivated are the 614th Space Intelligence Group, 614th Space Intelligence Squadron, and 614th Space Operations Squadron. Manpower for these units switches over to the 614th AOC.
The Air Force has finished modifying and testing the new VC-25B Bridge aircraft that will serve as a temporary Air Force One, the service announced May 1. All that’s left now is to finish painting the jet before it starts flying this summer.
