Air Force Reserve Command’s 403rd Wing at Keesler AFB, Miss., now has all eight of its new C-130J-30 airlifters, with the arrival last week of the final stretch version. The wing also has 10 WC-130Js, specially modified Hercules to conduct weather operations. The 403rd began converting to the newest Herk in October 1999.
Officials at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Fla., said the range is “fully mission capable” to support launches following a major May 28 mishap involving Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket.
