WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.), a member of the U.S. Senate Committee on Appropriations, today announced the final Omnibus appropriations bill includes $219 million in military construction funding for upgrades to McConnell Air Force Base (AFB) to accommodate the new KC-46A tankers. This figure is consistent with previous estimates provided by the U.S. Air Force for military construction at McConnell AFB as the Main Operating Base (MOB) #1 for the KC-46A. The Omnibus appropriations bill is expected to be voted on in the U.S. House and Senate this week.
