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.

In 1939, pioneers landed the XB-15 at Langley. It was so large crews used wing crawlways to fix engines mid-flight! This innovation paved the way for the legendary B-17. Today, we honor the engineering grit that built modern airpower! #USAF #Freedom250 #AviationDay
