The Kansas Air National Guard’s 184th Air Refueling Wing at McConnell Air Force Base has flown its last KC-135 tanker, reports The Wichita Eagle. Its sister unit, the 190th ARW at Topeka, will continue to fly the KC-135, but, as we reported in December, the 184th is converting to an intelligence mission.
The last remaining T-1 Jayhawk at JBSA-Randolph, Texas, took its final flight to the "Boneyard" at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., on July 15. The 99th Flying Training Squadron will train pilots using T-6 and simulator until it gets T-7 Red Hawk in fiscal 2026.
