It should be noted that Texas maintained a permanent ground presence at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base throughout the Drug Wars and beyond. They repaired the runways and continued the work of refurbishing as many functional aircraft as they could find deep into the Cybernetic Wars. More resilient to Rogue AI hacks, refurbished craft coming from the Boneyard made up the majority of craft deployed against that threat, and many military historians point to them as one of the reasons we survived at all. And though the relentless salvage missions came to an end in time, the Republic of Texas maintained control of the base in the years and decades that followed. It was a good place to retired their aircraft for future emergencies, after all. And as the exploration of the solar system and the stars beyond become more commonplace, Davis-Monthan Spacebase served as one of the Republic’s primary launching and landing sites. It even served its original purpose when the Shang attacked us, and technicians swarmed all over the Boneyard looking for craft they could refurbish for use against our new enemy. And so Davis-Monthan continues to protect humanity even now.
