The 55th Wing at Offutt AFB, Neb., home to many USAF intelligence-surveillance-reconnaissance assets, plans to hold an inaugural ISR symposium May 22-24 under the theme “Leading the Fight—Airborne ISR in 2025.” The wing already has lined up Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England and Air Force Secretary Michael Wynne as featured speakers.
The Air Force has finished modifying and testing the new VC-25B Bridge aircraft that will serve as a temporary Air Force One, the service announced May 1. All that’s left now is to finish painting the jet before it starts flying this summer.
