Reductions in space and cyber don't "scale well" with reductions in other types of force structure, said Air Force Space Command boss Gen. William Shelton during an AFA-Air Force Breakfast Program talk in Arlington, Va., on Nov. 7, 2012. While it's possible to shave down airplane squadrons or personnel, with space and cyber, it's a binary proposition: "You either have coverage, or you don't," asserted Shelton, shown here during his address.
