Congressional Compromise Includes Provisions For Air Force Tankers
The FY26 National Defense Authorization Act, released late Sunday, includes provisions aimed at aerospace programs such as Air Force tankers and Army helicopters. The bill boosts the Pentagon’s topline by $8 billion and authorizes funding for several key programs, including the E-7 Wedgetail and Air Force executive airlift fleets. The legislation also includes provisions for the Army’s Black Hawk and Future Long-Range Assault Aircraft programs. The bill was reported by Breaking Defense.
