Pacific Air Forces plans to deactivate its 607th Combat Communications Squadron in South Korea as part of a command-wide restructuring of its communications capability that will culminate with establishment of a regional unit at Andersen AFB, Guam, reports Stars and Stripes. The plan involves leaving some tactical comm capability—about 15 positions—at Osan AB, South Korea, and basing a larger unit, an as yet unnumbered squadron under Andersen’s 36th Contingency Response Group.
The Space Force’s recent contract to Muon Space to repurpose their commercial weather satellites for military use will inform a broader “data-as-a-service” strategy for its space-based environmental monitoring mission.
