FARGO, N.D. (AP) — The North Dakota Air National Guard would not see any job cutbacks under the Air Force's proposed fiscal 2013 budget, but it would lose a manned flying mission.
The Guard says North Dakota would become the only state without an Air National Guard manned flying mission.
The Fargo-based 119th Wing would not get C-27J Spartan cargo aircraft as planned. The wing also is losing its current C-21 Learjet mission next year. The Happy Hooligans would continue to operate Predator drones, which are unmanned aircraft. And the wing would get an intelligence mission.
