The Warner Robins Air Logistics Center at Robins AFB, Ga., has moved its F-15 depot operations to a new location on the base. Maj. Gen. Tom Owen, ALC commander, marked the completion of the move last week, saying it would enable the 561st Aircraft Maintenance Squadron to accommodate more than $50 million in extra work each year, reports Air Force journalist Damian Housman. Owen also noted that moving the operation into an existing facility eliminated the need to spend some $17 million to build a new hangar.
Lt. Gen. Dan Caine, nominee to be chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told the Senate Armed Services Committee that the Defense Department needs to upgrade its electronic warfare capability and its EW training ranges; just as his predecessor said at his own confirmation hearing.
