The New York Air National Guard’s wing at Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station formally switched from the 107th Air Refueling Wing to the 107th Airlift Wing on Tuesday, according to a New York State Division of Military and Naval Affairs release. The unit has converted, courtesy of BRAC 2005, from KC-135 tankers to an associate unit, flying and maintaining C-130s alongside Air Force Reserve Command’s 914th Airlift Wing at the station.
The Air Force Historical Foundation has recognized two Air Force B-2 Spirit bomber wings among the winners of its 2025-2026 prestigious annual awards, selecting both for their part in Operation Midnight Hammer, the daring raid on Iran’s fortified nuclear weapons sites.
