The Air Force’s leadership will convene one of its tri-annual summits later this week, this time at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio. Lt. Col. Adrian Craig, spokeswoman for Chief of Staff Gen. Norton Schwartz, told the Daily Report yesterday that this “Corona Top” meeting is expected to be about a day and a half event where the leadership will discuss the state of the Air Force with senior USAF generals from the combatant commands and the service’s own major commands and plot the course of future changes.
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.
