-
Image
  The 492nd Special Operations Wing Is Coming to Davis-Monthan—Here’s What It Means for Us in Southeastern Arizona Davis-Monthan Air Force Base is about to look a little different. Tucson is getting ready to welcome the 492nd Special Operations Wing (492 SOW), a unit with roots going all the way back to World War II. And while this is a big shift for the Air Force, it also has some ripple effects down here in Cochise County —yes, even for folks around Fort Huachuca and Sierra Vista . A Quick Look Back The 492nd’s story starts in WWII as the 492nd Bombardment Group . They flew into combat in May of 1944 and suffered some of the heaviest bomber losses in the European Theater. After being pulled from those missions, the group shifted into special operations for the rest of the war. Fast-forward a few decades, and the modern wing has been at Hurlburt Field, Florida, training and supporting Air Force Special Operations Command . Why the Move to Tucson? In 2023, the Air Force annou...

Space has always felt far away, until now. Sierra Vista is officially on the map for the next generation of space technology with BlackStar Orbital choosing our municipal airport as home base for its new $7.1 million spacecraft manufacturing and test facility. By 2026, this project is expected to bring at least 50 high-wage aerospace jobs right here to our city. That’s not just a headline, it’s a huge deal for our community, our local economy, and for families looking for stable, future-focused careers in Southern Arizona. What BlackStar Orbital Does  BlackStar Orbital isn’t building just another satellite. Their flagship project, the SpaceDrone , is part spaceplane and part satellite bus. Think of it as a reusable “drone for space” that launches like a small satellite, conducts missions in orbit like earth observation, communications, or defense ISR, then returns to Earth and lands on a runway for refurbishment and reuse. Instead of burning up in the atmosphere like most satell...
