Airmen of the Japanese Air Self Defense Force are flying their C-1 transports loaded with supplies destined for US bases in Japan and Guam. The C-1 flights enable the US Air Force to divert its airlifters to support operations in the war on terror.
The last remaining T-1 Jayhawk at JBSA-Randolph, Texas, took its final flight to the "Boneyard" at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., on July 15. The 99th Flying Training Squadron will train pilots using T-6 and simulator until it gets T-7 Red Hawk in fiscal 2026.
