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.
Air Force Chief of Staff nominee Gen. Henneth Wilsbach said he'll give special attention to coordinating with the Navy on buys of new weapons like the Joint Advanced Tactical Missile.
