Obviously there are first rumors about another Air Defender in 2026.

If so it is questionable if it will be planned as in 2023. Wittmund should be active again, but other resources say, the base will not re-open before 2027. If Hohn will play again a major role or possibly Laage isn’t known yet.

And how will be the situation around ANG legacy F-15 and A-10, are they still active? Time will tell.
