Air Force Space Command plans to hold the space and missile competition known as Guardian Challenge, culminating in an awards banquet on Aug. 17. Real-world deployments caused the command to cancel the Challenge last year. Peterson AFB, Colo., home to AFSPC headquarters and several space units, is host to this year’s competition. The command’s helicopter crews held their portion of the competition in May at Camp Guernsey, Wyo.
The Department of the Air Force announced seven new mission area-focused portfolio acquisition executives for the Air Force and Space Force, some of the department's first steps to implement Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's sweeping acquisition reforms.
