To meet tomorrow’s threats, the Dept. of the Air Force is building combat power at scale. During #AFANational#, @SecAFOfficial outlined how the Air Force and @USSpaceForce are moving faster, fielding more autonomous systems and modernizing affordably to stay ahead.

This morning, @SecAFOfficial announced the official names of the Air Force’s newest Collaborative Combat Aircraft, the FQ-42 Vengeance and FQ-44 Fury, during his keynote address at the @AFA_Air_Space's #AFANational# Conference. Revealing popular names was a natural next step for the CCA program as the Air Force modernizes the nation’s aerial combat fleet. The Air Force intends to purchase about 1,000 combat-ready, semi-autonomous systems that will extend reach, awareness and survivability of American airpower in contested environments. Meink confirmed that the service would have 500 of the aircraft by 2032. More to follow.

Michael Babcock (@PayOwn) of @acbnational wanted to cut down time-consuming weekly tasks. Even though he’s not a developer, he built the solution himself. Meet ACB Community Builder, made with GitHub Copilot and JAWS. ▶️
