Air Combat Command’s AGILE FLAG 21-1 exercise will test the 366th Fighter Wing’s (Mountain Home AFB, ID) ability to deploy into theater as a lead AEW with a wing-level air staff 21-29 Oct, 2021. The unit will employ Mission Generation, Command and Control, and Base Operating Support-Integrator elements from its main operating base at Tyndall AFB, FL, while supporting a forward operating base at Hurlburt Field, FL, and a contingency location at Eglin AFB, FL. Mountain Home will also deploy F-15Es from its 389th Fighter Squadron, and Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, AK, will deploy F-22s from its 90th FS. The 5th Combat Communications Group from Robins AFB, GA, will establish a significant portion of the communications infrastructure. Fifteenth Air Force headquarters will send in a small element to observe the standards and qualifications necessary to certify a lead wing. Additional units and Airmen from Air Mobility Command and Air Force Special Operations Command will also support the exercise. These units will come together to demonstrate and exercise how a wing-level organization can project combat air power, while remaining agile and dynamic. show less
