According to the Harwich Oracle, Air Force Space Command maintains that the turbines of a proposed wind farm on Nantucket Sound would not affect its PAVE PAWS phased-array warning radar station in Sagamore. The command issued a decision in 2004 stating that the 130 wind turbines would not affect the PAVE PAWS, operated by the 6th Space Warning Squadron at Cape Cod AFS, Mass. Last year, however, Congress asked AFSPC to go over its findings again. Lt. Col. Christopher Gentry, 6th SWS commander, said Space Command officials “stand by their original position.”
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.
