The Air Force has decided to trim the size of the fighter training range it had proposed for eastern Nevada airspace, reports the Las Vegas Review-Journal. It is to be used primarily by F-16s flying out of Hill AFB, Utah. Nevada officials worried the Air Force initiative would crimp local economic plans.
With Congress considering another continuing resolution to cover the rest of fiscal 2025, the Space Force’s No. 2 officer asked lawmakers to give the service “flexibility” to deal with budget uncertainty.
