While undergoing the full NSI, the 90th MW also completed a nuclear operational readiness inspection and operational readiness inspection. The AFGSC inspector general team conducted all three inspections from Jan. 5 to Jan. 19. (AFGSC release)
A semi-autonomous Collaborative Combat Aircraft drone shot down an air-to-air target in a Dec. 8 test supported by the U.S. Air Force, a notable milestone in the development of the loyal wingman-type drones that will join the fleets of the USAF, other American services, and allies and adversaries.
