Wilson included a short video of the advanced fighter jets taxiing along the runway at Eglin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wilson earlier this month outlined a plan to return some airmen and duties to Tyndall, and temporarily relocate others. The 43rd and 2nd Fighter squadrons&#8217; F-22 fighter training units are temporarily moving to Eglin, as is the 372nd Training Squadron, Detachment 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But other F-22s and airmen, with the 95th Fighter Squadron, are not coming back to Florida for now \u2014 and it\u2019s unclear when, or if, that might change.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/airforcetimes\/news\/your-air-force\/2018\/11\/02\/airmen-and-missions-returning-to-tyndall-but-questions-remain-on-fate-of-f-22s\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"157\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Wilson_Tyndall.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Air Force announces return of many airmen and missions to Tyndall \u2014 but questions remain on fate of F-22s<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson said that all but about 500 evacuated airmen will return to Tyndall Air Force Base in Florida or the surrounding area in the next few months as the base continues recovering from Hurricane Michael.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tyndall commander Col. Brian Laidlaw, head of the 325th Fighter Wing, also said in a Monday letter to airmen that base residents must take their property out of lots and storage areas, within 45 days so Tyndall can move forward with its recovery plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Personal property does not have to be moved out of base housing, Laidlaw said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe know that the hurricane has moved and destroyed many items, and we will do our best to ensure you are able to find and retrieve any personal property,\u201d Laidlaw said. \u201cWe are asking that those who have personal property on base (not to include personal property located in base housing) to retrieve it within the next 45 days.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Airmen who need to retrieve their property should contact the Tyndall Visitor Control Center to make sure they can get on base, Laidlaw said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tyndall also announced in a Nov. 14 release that Boeing delivered a QF-16 unmanned aerial target aircraft to the 82nd Aerial Target Squadron at Tyndall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe arrival of this QF-16 brings us one step closer to resuming operations,\u201d Col. Steven Boatright, commander of the 53rd Weapons Evaluation Group, said in the release. \u201cIt is vital to the warfighter that we resume operations when it is deemed safe to do so.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><a
