How we deploy
Deployments are part of the biz, and my best and worst moments have been downrange. Looks like the USAF is moving from the very modular system of the last 20 years and is reinvestigating the composite wing. What old is new again.

The last Composite Wing that I know of was at Mtn Home AFB, It had KC-10s, B-1s, F-15Cs, F-16CJ, and F-15Es. A fascinating concept. You could pick up and go and have just about every thing you needed for combat.

Unit of the Moment: 345 Bomb Squadron (B-1)
Nothing beat a B-1 flyover! And the Dyess B-1s saw action just this year in Iraq and Syria. This squadron is also have a rush which is a great opportunity in an of itself.

Math in public but at 2M a copy looks like the USAF might get close to putting one on each jet. Love that!

Hot take: The F-15EX and the ANG
So…rumour has it we’re buying more EX’s. See the article below.
Backgroud: Boeing St. Louis makes the hornet and the eagle. We’re done making hornets so if that line were to close 1) St Louis would lose a ton of good jobs, 2) Lockheed would be the only Fighter Game in town 3) Boeing would…have yet more problems.

Congress to the Air Force: Buy More F-15EX Eagle IIs

Any thoughts on the ANG’s risk exposure? If the RegAF manages to mostly shake the program and leave the ANG with an orphan fleet it could become a large burden.

Best day at the Range Ever!
Frankly I thought this was DCS the first time I saw it. Who do I have to be to get 4 cans of CBU, 2 AGM-65 and Gun to just play around on the Nellis Ranges. I love that you can hear the mavericks over the wind noise.

C model Strafe!?
Okay maybe not the best camera work but awesome sound. The Hog’s 30mm is still the king but the M61 makes an awesome noise.
But I do have questions…why are C models strafing? @SLAP

@Husky I wouldn’t expect the Mighty EAAAAGLE to provide CAS anytime soon. It doesn’t have any built-in air-to-ground targeting systems, so the F-15C’s use an iron sight (WWII style), some mental math, and a lot of luck to get even close to being on target.
