The A-10C Thunderbolt II completed its final public Range Day at Barry M. Goldwater Range on 24 June 2026, ending its operational presence at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base. Two aircraft flew in formation during the ceremonial farewell, attended by Airmen and local community members. This event marks the last public demonstration for the A-10C variant at this location, signaling the base’s transition to new assets expected in Fall 2026. The A-10 fleet, comprising roughly 80 aircraft across three squadrons, is being divested as the Air Force replaces aging Warthogs with advanced fighters, including the F-35. The 355th Wing plans to retire the squadron through fall, with the 492nd Special Operations Wing relocating to Davis-Monthan to assume the new mission.
