Remember the Titan: Barring changes to the schedule, the final Titan IV rocket will blast off from its pad at Vandenberg AFB, Calif., Wednesday. Carrying a classified payload for the National Reconnaissance Office, the 20-story Titan is being replaced by a new breed of rockets developed under the Air Force’s Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle program.
The Air National Guard will deactivate an air control squadron in Georgia and dozens more in Iowa, converting the unit and positions to do cyber operations.
