LONDON — During his meeting with international air chiefs this week, the U.S. Air Force’s top general plans to pitch his counterparts on the idea of an air chiefs conference centered around joint war fighting in space.

The event would be tied to Space Symposium, which is held every spring in Colorado Springs, Colorado, the home of U.S. Air Force Space Command.

“I’m looking at the possibility. We’ll sort of gauge the interest,” Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Dave Goldfein told Defense News during an exclusive July 10 interview ahead of the Royal International Air Tattoo, which kicks off July 13.
