Bill Summary

A RESOLUTION supporting the Kansas Air National Guard's 190th Air Refueling Wing based at Forbes Field Air National Guard Base on being a recipient finalist for a KC- 46A Pegasus mission and accompanying aircraft.

AI Summary

This resolution supports the Kansas Air National Guard's 190th Air Refueling Wing, based at Forbes Field Air National Guard Base, in its pursuit of a new KC-46A Pegasus mission and aircraft. The resolution highlights the wing's current use of aging KC-135R Stratotanker aircraft, which are over 60 years old, and emphasizes the unit's critical homeland defense missions with the United States Strategic Command and Northern Command. The document underscores the 190th Air Refueling Wing's unique qualifications for the new mission, citing its strategic geographic location, exceptional facilities, uncongested airspace, available land for expansion, and experienced personnel. By formally resolving to support the wing's selection as a finalist for the Pegasus mission, the Kansas Legislature aims to recognize the unit's importance to national defense and its readiness to modernize its aging fleet with new, more advanced aircraft.
