New S.O.W. stood up at Cannon AFB

The 27th FW has stood down and a new 27th S.O.W. has been stood up at Canon AFB.

The total number of aircraft, to be stationed at Cannon AFB is expected to be around 100. The final active-duty population at Cannon AFB is expected to be between 4400 to 5600 people. It will take approximately three years to complete the build-up of the new special operations wing at Cannon AFB.

Thats a lot of aircraft !

The first AFSOC aircraft to move to Cannon AFB will be the 73rd Special
Operations Squadron’s MC-130W Combat Spear currently located at Hurlburt
Field.
The MC-130W conducts infiltration, exfiltration, and resupply of special
operations forces and provides refueling capability for special operations
vertical-lift assets like the CV-22 Osprey.

Wonder what else is on the shopping list?
