Air Force Magazine will be available for sale at select Barnes & Noble stores around the country beginning in January. The Air Force Association worked with Ingram Periodicals, a publishing and distribution company in La Vergne, Tenn., to establish Air Force Magazine sales at the largest retail bookseller in the US. The magazine cover price is $8 a copy, with the exception of the Air Force almanac—now in the June issue—which will be $18. The February issue, which will be released in early January, will be the first to hit the bookshelves.
The rate of building B-21 bombers would speed up if the fiscal 2026 defense budget passes. But it remains unclear how much capacity would be added, and whether the Air Force would simply build the bombers faster, or buy more.
