AI Summary
This resolution urges the Secretary of the Air Force to select the 121st Air Refueling Wing at Rickenbacker Air National Guard Base in Columbus, Ohio, as the preferred main operating base for the KC-46 Pegasus refueling aircraft. The resolution highlights several key advantages of the Rickenbacker location, including two 12,000-foot runways, strategic intermodal transportation capabilities, proximity to 60% of Department of Defense customers, modern facilities, and a low risk for natural disasters. The 121st Air Refueling Wing is emphasized as a high-performing unit, having been recognized as the Air National Guard's top KC-135 wing in 2024, with impressive flight hours, fuel offloading, and personnel manning levels. The resolution also notes the wing's significant contributions, including eight major overseas deployments, support for worldwide exercises, and its critical role in the Nuclear Triad. The document requests that copies of the resolution be transmitted to various government officials and media outlets to support the base's selection for the KC-46 Pegasus operations.
