He said the United States is moving into that period and stressed air power's role within NATO while noting the B-36 will be surpassed by future types.

The Air Force also announced the 123rd Fighter-Bomber Wing will deploy to England to replace the 12th Wing, with about 1,600 guardsmen from Kentucky, North Carolina and West Virginia.
