Hungary is now part of the NATO Airborne Early Warning and Control aircraft family, helping to operate the alliance’s fleet of ground radar aircraft. Through 2006, Hungarian Air Force personnel will take up ground and flying positions at the force command headquarters in Mons, Belgium, the fleet’s home in Germany and at the program’s management agency in the Netherlands.
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.
