Air Force Reserve Command plans on Sept. 30 to deactivate its 92nd Aerial Port Squadron, which has operated out of the Wyoming Valley Airport in Luzerne County, Pa., since 1961, reports The Times Leader. The unit currently is trying to place its 130 Reservists with other units in the northeast. The 92nd APS is just one of several isolated Reserve units slated for deactivation as it cuts personnel under USAF’s planned 40,000-full time equivalent position drawdown.
An important U.S. Air Force E-3 Sentry AWACS command and control plane was among the aircraft damaged in a March 27 Iranian missile and drone attack on Prince Sultan Air Base, Saudi Arabia, people familiar with the matter told Air & Space Forces Magazine.
