Staff Sgt. Jesse Warren, avionics specialist, and Staff Sgt. Jaron Pollard, ordnance equipment mechanic, assigned to the Georgia Air National Guard’s 116th Maintenance Group, count 30 mm rounds at Hurlburt Field, Florida, April 21, 2026. Stemming from the planned retirement of the A-10 Thunderbolt II, Air Force Special Operations Command is projected to receive thousands of unlinked 30 mm ammunition, necessitating the use of a new ammunition linking machine to internally assemble and process the rounds for use on the AC-130J Ghostrider.
