Key Senate Support Ensures Davis-Monthan's Future Following A-10's Retirement

Senator Kelly affirmed that Davis-Monthan Air Force Base will continue to thrive even after the retirement of the A-10 Warthog aircraft currently stationed there.
The senator expressed confidence in the base's prospects following the A-10's retirement in the early 2030s.
The base is well-positioned to receive new missions and aircraft given its existing infrastructure and location.
Community leaders have been concerned about the base's future without the A-10, but Kelly sought to reassure them of Davis-Monthan's enduring value to the Air Force.
The senator remains committed to supporting the base and ensuring its continued success far into the future.
