        Next year may look significantly different than expected for the USAF. The divestment of the A-10 looks to be accelerated by about 2 years, but the F-15EX still looks to be moving forward. Fewer F-35s will likely be procured (sure to hinder the ANG conversion efforts) with F-47 continuing to inch closer to IOC.

        The biggest data point here, though, is the cancellation of the E-7 Wedgetail for the US. Already being flown by Australia, it was supposed to replace the E-3 (which is now receiving upgrades). I can only think that this opens the door to joint employment of the E-2D Hawkeye as the C2 platform of the future. BogiDopers flying around in the Hawekeye in the future? Certainly BogiDopers flying around talking to the Hawkeye in the future.

        US Air Force to retire all A-10s, cancel E-7 under 2026 spending plan

        The Air Force wants to retire hundreds of older aircraft, including the entire Warthog fleet, to free up money for future planes.
