ARLINGTON, Va. (AFNS) --  The Department of the Air Force selected Selfridge Air National Guard Base, Michigan, as the preferred location to host the next KC-46A Pegasus pending the outcome of a planned environmental impact analysis in 2025.Twelve KC-46As are expected to replace the aging A-10C Thunderbolt IIs and KC-135 Stratotankers at Selfridge ANGB. The A-10s at Selfridge ANGB are expected to begin divestment in 2026, and the KC-135s there are expected to begin divestment in 2027.Selfridge ANGB is slated to receive 12 new KC-46s that are projected to start arriving in 2029 and will bring enhanced capabilities, such as boom and drogue refueling on the same sortie, worldwide navigations and communication, cargo capacity on the entire main deck地板,接收器加油,改善的力保护和多点防空能力。划分老化的A-10机队和KC-135s,并用KC-46代替它们,确保Selfridge Angb具有持久和现代的任务,以满足国防策略的要求。将来,Selfridge Angb不会被视为战斗机任务或其他潜在任务。
