Eagles for Korea: US Air Force airmen are helping in the delivery of two new F-15K Eagles to Seoul, South Korea. Theses are the first two of 40 K model F-15s South Korea purchased from Boeing for $4.2 billion. Boeing and South Korea Air Force pilots are flying the fighters to Seoul, aided by aerial refuelings from the Hawaii Air National Guard KC-135s. The fighters will stop at Andersen AFB, Guam, before flying on to Seoul.
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.
