It will vary by the unit and the timing. Any reason for not wanting to get LASIK/PRK in order to have your vision corrected to the requirements? Your life could depend on it, visuals cues can be incredibly subtle under NVGs flying terrain flight on a low illum night.

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
Congress is looking to safeguard the F-15EX Eagle II capability well into the future and keep the versatile jet around.

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.

Howdy, my name is Max. I have always wanted to be a military pilot like both my grandfathers. Instead, I went down the business path for a little while and now that I have my degree and some life experience, it’s time to follow that dream. I just turned 25, have a bachelor’s degree from UofSC, and am currently working on getting my PPL…
