Defense Secretary Orders Air Force to Pause All (GPC) Reorg Planning

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth directed the Department of the Air Force to pause all planning related to its “Re-Optimization for Great Power Competition” effort—a move that leaves a sweeping plan to transform the Air Force and Space Force in limbo.

How quickly the pause may be lifted is also uncertain but could take months. President Donald Trump has nominated Troy E. Meink for Air Force Secretary and Matthew Lohmeier for Undersecretary, but both men still have to undergo confirmation hearings before the Senate Armed Services Committee and be approved by the full Senate.
