The Air Force has inactivated the Command and Control, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance Battlelab at Langley AFB, Va., after some 10 years of operation. As we reported earlier this year, the Air Force decided to close all seven of its battlelabs because of overall money woes. All seven are due to close by Oct. 1.
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.
