The Indian Air Force is working to establish an aerospace command to exploit space capabilities, Chief of Air Staff Air Chief Marshal SP Tyagi said this week. The Times of India reported that Indian satellites, radars, communications systems, fighter aircraft, and helicopters would be integrated under the command. He did not commit to an exact time frame for setting up the aerospace command.
Airmen and Guardians in the Active and Reserve component, as well as civilian employees, in “mission critical and high-risk populations” are now required to receive influenza vaccinations annually to “preserve force readiness,” according to a recent Department of the Air Force memo.
