The Air Force has selected Boeing to modify the service’s C-130 aircrew training systems to accommodate the C-130 avionics modernization program. The Air Force has said it will move ahead with the C-130 AMP but plans to re-compete the installation contract this fall. And, the service decided not to include its oldest C-130s, the E Models, in the upgrade plan.
Lt. Gen. Stephen L. Davis, the Department of the Air Force’s top internal watchdog, has been nominated to lead Air Force Global Strike Command, which oversees the service’s bombers and intercontinental ballistic missiles.
