Dover Air Force Base could lose as many as four C-5 cargo jets along with needed service personnel under structural changes proposed by the Air Force.
In addition, the Air Force would cancel the plan to bring an active-duty C-130 squadron to the New Castle National Guard base next year.
The Wilmington News Journal reports that could indicate that the Air Force is not planning to upgrade the Guard’s eight aging C-130 cargo aircraft which have become obsolete.
