According to the Air Force’s top enlisted airman, CMSAF Rodney McKinley, “One thing we haven’t done well is to tell our story.” So, USAF will build on its initial “Air Force Week” event in St. Louis and hopes to expand it to perhaps 10 cities in 2007. McKinley told Air Force Magazine Monday that cities where there is no military presence are of particular concern, and USAF officials want to focus information efforts there.
The Air Force is launching an effort to develop a new stand-off missile with a range of 1,000 nautical miles, or 1,150 miles, that would eventually be used for both air-to-air and air-to-surface missions.
