Energy , along with Air Mobility 

18
00:00:43,542 --> 00:00:45,709
Command , are entering the final phase 

19
00:00:45,709 --> 00:00:47,820
of evaluation for the micro vein drag 

20
00:00:47,820 --> 00:00:50,069
reduction technology on the C-17 

21
00:00:50,069 --> 00:00:52,549
Globemaster 3 . Micro veins will 

22
00:00:52,549 --> 00:00:54,771
improve operational capabilities across 

23
00:00:54,771 --> 00:00:56,660
the department and increase the . 

24
00:00:56,660 --> 00:00:58,771
Effectiveness of the C-17 fleet . The 

25
00:00:58,771 --> 00:01:00,882
low-cost tech is projected to yield a 

26
00:01:00,882 --> 00:01:02,938
return of investment within 7 months 

27
00:01:02,938 --> 00:01:05,049
from efficiencies gained through fuel 

28
00:01:05,049 --> 00:01:07,216
cost reduction , saving the department 

29
00:01:07,216 --> 00:01:09,139
over $14 million annually , while 

30
00:01:09,139 --> 00:01:11,361
simultaneously improving the aircraft's 

31
00:01:11,361 --> 00:01:14,529
capabilities . The US Air Force and 

32
00:01:14,529 --> 00:01:16,930
Boeing have agreed to adjust aspects of 

33
00:01:16,930 --> 00:01:19,559
the T7A Red Hawk acquisition approach 

34
00:01:19,849 --> 00:01:21,793
to meet air education and Training 

35
00:01:21,793 --> 00:01:23,960
Command's operational needs to deliver 

36
00:01:23,960 --> 00:01:25,970
a safe and sustainable platform to 

37
00:01:25,970 --> 00:01:28,529
replace the aging T38C Talon aircraft 

38
00:01:28,529 --> 00:01:30,889
fleet . Under the adjusted plan , the 

39
00:01:30,889 --> 00:01:32,959
Air Force would receive 4 production 

40
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:34,903
representative test vehicles . And 

41
00:01:34,903 --> 00:01:36,889
fiscal year 2025 with research , 

42
00:01:36,900 --> 00:01:39,139
development , test and evaluation funds 

43
00:01:39,139 --> 00:01:41,699
to deliver in fiscal year 2026 , this 

44
00:01:41,699 --> 00:01:43,699
expanded test capacity would enable 

45
00:01:43,699 --> 00:01:46,139
AETC to expedite test plans and 

46
00:01:46,139 --> 00:01:48,139
curriculum development , ultimately 

47
00:01:48,139 --> 00:01:50,306
achieving a timely initial operational 

48
00:01:50,306 --> 00:01:52,361
capability . That's your look around 

49
00:01:52,361 --> 00:01:54,306
the Air Force . I'm Staff Sergeant
