Travis AFB, Calif., on March 28 welcomed the 59th and final KC-10 Extender to complete a six-year-long modification project for the entire fleet. The update, called the Communication, Navigation, Surveillance/Air Traffic Management system, began in 2011 and modernized the aircraft, along with increasing fuel efficiency, according to an Air Mobility Command release. Each jet underwent modifications for several months at Will Rogers World Airport in Oklahoma City.
The Air Force budget would grow to $234 billion while Space Force spending would shrink to $26 billion under the White House's yearly ask.
