DM50, a consulting group and a non-profit volunteer organization in Tucson, is looking to ensure the survival of the Davis-Monthan Air Force Base despite a proposed retirement by the United Air Force.
The Air Force is considering closing the A-10 Thunderbolt close air-support jet in 2022, which is the biggest flying mission at Davis-Monthan.
However, according to vice president of DM50, Bob Logan, if the A-10 mission is dissolved, there are several options for other flying missions at the air base. One of these is the Remotely Piloted Aircraft mission, which, Logan said, could add 500 new jobs to the air base. If this were to happen, the economic impact to the area could be tremendous.
DM50 could hire a local Print company in Tucson to produce Flyers and other promotional materials about the potential new flying mission so as to generate support from the community for the air base to consider adding this mission should the A-10 mission be dissolved.
The Tucson News Now reported that the air base is focusing on generating combat power for the nation and had no comment about the efforts of DM50. The Davis-Monthan Air Force Base generated an estimated $991 million for the economy is southern Arizona for the fiscal year 2015, which was an increase of two percent from the previous year.
