Mr. Chairman, this amendment would add to the $120 million for A-10 wings that has already been provided, as well as the $79 million included in the Air Force budget request. The Air Force has indicated to us that the additional funding in this amendment can be executed upon contract award, which is expected by the middle of 2019. Mr. Chairman, I am prepared to accept the amendment, and I reserve the balance of my time. Ms. McSALLY. Mr. Chairman, I want to say I just appreciate the chairwoman's support for this amendment and for the critical missions of the A-10. I would ask everyone to please support this amendment, and I yield back the balance of my time.
