Air Force To Buy 2,800 iPad 2 Tablets
The Air Force plans to buy several thousand iPads for use by its special operations command, Information Week reports. The service wants to procure upwards of 2,800 iPad 2 tablets to replace paper publications that are regularly issued to pilots by the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency and the Air Force. A notice the Air Force posted on FedBizOpps says each member of the command's air crews would receive their own iPad, and it would improve the existing paper-based system by making updates to publications almost instantaneous and less costly.

Really that what there using with our tax money iPad 2 tablets. They should know it is easy to hack the iPads and use signaling devices to steal information from it.
2,800 is not very many and certainly not nearly as many who moved to Windows in the AF during the last technology shift. That shift is simply happening again.
