Maybe they will get the F-15's from Barnes and extend the runway?The USAF is hellbent on retiring A-10s by 2029, so the MdANG is likely to get new rides fairly soon. I'm thinking they will be F-16s as F-35 and F-15 need a lot of runway.

No room. What I really fear is they lose the tactical jet mission altogether. Maybe they will develop the light tactical jet version of the T-7, lol.Maybe they will get the F-15's from Barnes and extend the runway?
I had a feeling they were practicing refueling based on the flight pattern and position of the helo in relation to the C-130 when I saw them overhead. Unfortunately I wasn't able to figure out which frequencies they were using (I'm not really into milair comms), so I missed out on that. Maybe next time!Hey @GTR8000 , Good catch from over there. That was KING79 with a Pavehawk JOLLY11 out of Gabreski in Suffolk County. They were using 251.9 for the boom freq. and 328.475 for tactical training.
Yes those are the two main freqs. they use. They will probably go up tonight or tomorrow night when they usually do gunnery or flare exercises.I had a feeling they were practicing refueling based on the flight pattern and position of the helo in relation to the C-130 when I saw them overhead.

Rgr that no guarantee they get anything to replace the A-10's. Indiana ANG is trading in their A-10's for F-16's but they had them previously.No room. What I really fear is they lose the tactical jet mission altogether. Maybe they will develop the light tactical jet version of the T-7, lol.

There is an E-6B #163918 orbiting off Southern California that departed from Vandenberg.. Could be for Missile launch from Vandenberg.
Ahh, thanks for the letting me know what I caught on recording. Just got home from work to find some Boom and A-A chatter about breaking up at ACK then direct HTO. Seems like this was ROMA 42 flight on 282.000 from 1921-2011z. I see next ROMA over Nova Scotia now.AV F-16’s coming across the pond again today. ROMA31/41 and ROMA32/42 with 4 F16’s per flight.

Confirmed it was an Osprey. Put eyes on one taking off from NAS Norfolk KNGU southbound.Now that I think about it, the shape would fit. Thanks!
