Turkey has provided some 135,000 pounds of equipment and supplies for operations in Afghanistan—all of it airlifted by USAF C-17s deployed to Incirlik AB, Turkey. Active, Air National Guard, and Air Force Reserve airmen of the 728th Air Mobility Squadron at Incirlik loaded the material, including helicopters, ambulances, and various shipping containers, which the C-17s airlifted to Kabul Air Base in Afghanistan.
The Space Force should take bold, decisive steps—and soon—to develop the capabilities and architecture needed to support more flexible, dynamic operations in orbit and counter Chinese aggression and technological progress, according to a new report from AFA’s Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies.
