SANG Activity Limited By Lack of Planes
The 181st Tactical Fighter Group based in Hulman and at Baer Field Ft Wayne faces severe readiness limits as more than half of its F84F jets remained in France since 1961. Only 24 jets are available across the 181st and its sister unit, with manpower at 73 percent. Training shifts to home bases and photo reconnaissance jets are used for refueling and exercises. The unit cannot compete for the Spaatz Trophy due to jet shortages, and recovery is expected to take about 13 months.
