The biennial “Hawgsmoke 2006” competition kicked off this week at Davis-Monthan AFB, Ariz., with the arrival of 20 A-10 squadrons from around the world. The A-10 airmen are competing to see who will earn “best of the best” bragging rights in the 30th anniversary of an event that showcases ground attack bombing and tactical gunnery.
The Air Force budget would grow to $234 billion while Space Force spending would shrink to $26 billion under the White House's yearly ask.
