Last week a Daily Report entry—Rescue Crew Takes MacKay Trophy—had a missing hyperlink to the original report with details of the rescue operation that earned Pedro 16 the MacKay. We’ve repaired the DR entry and here also is the direct link to the initial report from Kadena Air Base.
The Air Force and Boeing agreed to a nearly $2.4 billion contract for a new lot of KC-46 aerial tankers on Nov. 21. The deal, announced by the Pentagon, is for 15 new aircraft in Lot 11 at a cost of $2.389 billion—some $159 million per tail.
