Senator Moody is urging General Kenneth Wilsbach, Chief of Staff of the United States Air Force, to move Blue Horizons to Orlando, where the proximity to Patrick Space Force Base and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station can provide the program with direct access to strategic leaders and mission partners across the joint force. “Blue Horizons is the innovation hub for our Air Force, and there is no better place for the program to relocate than Florida. Orlando’s world-class modeling and simulation industry, cutting-edge research at our universities, and proximity to our Space Force installations make our state an ideal new home for Blue Horizons. The Sunshine State stands ready to serve as the new home for the future of innovation for the United States Air Force,” said Senator Ashley Moody. BACKGROUND: Blue Horizons is the Air Force’s premier forum for exploring transformational ideas and capabilities for the future. University of Central Florida is the nation’s leading supplier of graduates to the aerospace and defense industry and is home to nationally recognized programs in modeling and simulation, artificial intelligence, digital engineering, and national security research. Florida is home to three combatant commands, giving Blue Horizons direct access to strategic leaders and mission partners across the joint force. Senator Moody has long fought for Florida’s servicemembers, veterans, and military families. Last year, Senator Moody secured more than $851 million for Florida’s military bases through her work on the National Defense Authorization Act. As Florida Attorney General, Senator Moody oversaw the Military and Veterans Assistance Program. Read the letter here. # # # | 1 | 2026-09-22T09:42:49Z | 2026-09-22T09:44:35Z |
