Union firefighters who work at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio, are crying foul over an Air Force plan to cut some 25 percent of the firefighter jobs, reports the Dayton Daily News.

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.
