General David Allvin

Recapping a monumental week with our Allies and Partners across the globe at the #GlobalAirSpaceChiefs Conference & RIAT. The many conversations reinforced our shared strategic vision to make our air forces more interoperable, more interchangeable, more effective.

We're investing in both tanker CAPACITY & CAPABILITY to enable the Joint Force now and into the future. That's why the @usairforce approved an acquisition strategy to extend KC-46A production by up to 75 aircraft. #ICYMI: shorturl.at/17MiL

REFORPAC is complex, new and challenging. We are stressing the system, learning from any gaps, and moving fast. I get reports every day and our Airmen are thinking outside the box and fortifying our already strong alliances with partners across the Pacific!

Great to walk the ramp at RIAT, the world’s largest international airshow, and see an impressive display of airpower. Highlight of my day was meeting our talented Airmen! #RIAT25

That’s a wrap on #GlobalAirSpaceChiefs Conference 2025. With insightful talks on space, autonomy, and modern conflict. Thanks to all the Chiefs, industry experts and academics for your contributions, and to our partners @airpowerassn.

Today at the #GlobalAirSpaceChiefs Conference, I reinforced the importance of speed and tempo in modern warfare. When allies and partners combine our individual capabilities – through co-development, interchangeability and information sharing - we're UNSTOPPABLE.

Thrilled to be back in the UK for my second #GlobalAirSpaceChiefs Conference, joining more than 50 Air & Space Chiefs to advance integration at a consequential moment for global security. Grateful to @RoyalAirForce and @ChiefofAirStaff ACM Knighton for hosting

The Department of the Air Force will ensure efficient use of taxpayer dollars, which is critical to national security and maintaining lethality! @DeptofDefense @DOGE @SecDef

The @SecAFOfficial and I had a busy trip to the Midwest! We stopped by @ScottAFB to recognize AMC’s crucial role in Operation Midnight Hammer, which required significant air refueling operations for the 36-hour mission. shorturl.at/yYgas

Just visited @Whiteman_AFB to thank our Airmen who contributed to the success of Operation Midnight Hammer! Proud to serve alongside these warriors. shorturl.at/ZITWY

Today is the day! The @USAirForce launched its Department-Level Exercise in the Pacific. This exercise will have 12k personnel, ~350 aircraft & multiple partners. Practicing these large muscle movements ensures we can project airpower anytime, anywhere! af.mil/News/Article-D…

Freedom Flyover Air Force aircraft took to the skies over the nation’s capital to celebrate Independence Day. Two B-2 Spirits were accompanied by two F-35A Lightning IIs and two F-22 Raptors during a flyover of the @WhiteHouse today. 1/2

Today we celebrate America’s freedom, which is protected by the brave men and women who serve.

From E-1 to O-10, thank you Duke for 42 years of service! Starting with flightline & back shop maintenance and retiring as the AFMC/CC, you are an enterprise leader. Thank you for everything you’ve done for the world’s greatest Air Force! @HQ_AFMC

Busy day in NYC! I enjoyed speaking with @foxandfriends and then welcoming our newest American Airmen onto our winning Team. Welcome to the world’s finest @usairforce!

It was a privilege & honor to swear in our newest Airmen in Times Square this morning. These patriots are joining a winning team!

.@OfficialCSAF: "After this show, I'm going to go and I'm going to swear in another 20 Americans who are going to join our Air Force... the recruiting is just going like gangbusters."

.@OfficialCSAF: "It was a great day this spring when @POTUS announced that we're going forward with the F-47... we hope to have one flying within the next 3 years."

Thank you @foxandfriends and @kilmeade for having me this morning to talk about @usairforce modernization efforts and our record recruiting numbers. It’s an exciting time to be an Airmen & we’re moving FAST!

Great to speak with @TheEconomist’s @AntonLaGuardia today on the evolution of Agile Combat Employment in the Pacific ahead of major exercises there this summer. We’re proving our ability to respond to any contingency with unprecedented scale & speed.
