The Alaska Air National Guard’s 168th Air Refueling Wing will host a KC-135 nose art unveiling this Friday (June 20) at the wing’s maintenance hangar on the grounds of Eielson Air Force Base. The new nose art will feature the seals of the City of Fairbanks and the City of North Pole to honor these two communities, which are home to the vast majority of the wing’s personnel, the wing said in a June 16 statement. The mayors of both cities will be on hand for the unveiling.
Northrop Grumman test fired its newest solid rocket motor Dec. 4, part of an internally funded effort to rapidly design and build SRMs using advanced manufacturing techniques.
