Suggest a Feature →Annual operations funding for Tinker AFB, Oklahoma — headquarters of the Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex (OC-ALC) and Air Force Sustainment Center. The base performs depot-level maintenance on B-1B Lancer, B-52 Stratofortress, E-3 Sentry, KC-135 Stratotanker, and numerous missile systems. With approximately 24,000 personnel (including ~11,000 civil service mechanics, engineers, and logistics experts), Tinker is Oklahoma's largest employer. The high operations figure reflects depot workload revenue from Air Force flying units, which "purchase" maintenance services from the depot through the Navy Working Capital Fund.
FY2025 MILCON for Tinker AFB. Projects include depot maintenance bay modernization for B-21 Raider support preparation ($65M) and consolidated aircraft engine test cell upgrades ($30M). The B-21 Raider's eventual depot support requirements are driving capital investment at Tinker to modernize maintenance infrastructure before the aircraft reaches the sustainment phase.
