Three years after the U.S. Air Force laid out initial plans for what its future fighter jets might look like, the service has unveiled a new office that aims to turn the vision into reality.
Dr. Will Roper, Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics, on Wednesday cut the ribbon on the 'Program Executive Office for Advanced Aircraft' during a ceremony at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, the service said in a release.
Roper named Col. Dale R. White as the head of the office. According to his official biography, White was previously the senior materiel leader for the B-21 Raider program at the Air Force Rapid Capabilities Office at the Pentagon. The stealth bomber is set to become the Pentagon's largest aircraft acquisition program since the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter.
