AFGSC partners with Kalogon to modernize innovative B-52H Stratofortress upgrades
U.S. Air Force Col. Kevin Kippie, Deputy Director of Strategic Plans, Programs and Requirements, Air Force Global Strike Command, examines a B-52H Stratofortress smart seat cushion prototype during a brief from Kalogon as they present December 6, 2023, at Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana. Kalogon, a company that builds seat cushions for wheelchair patients, has been working with the A5/8 as they create the smart seat cushion while executing a Small Business Innovation Research (SIBR) program that allows small businesses to explore new opportunities for research and development. The acquisition of this product will increase comfort and increase mission readiness for B-52H crews. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt. Micky Peña)
