U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. Cody Krommenhoek, 52nd Maintenance Squadron/AMMO Precision Guided Munitions NCO in charge, charges a TMU-72 argon cylinder during Blue Flag 2019 at Uvda Air Base, Israel, November 7, 2019. Argon cylinders are used to cool heat-seeking missiles, such as the M-9 Sidewinder. Cooling heat seeking missiles prevents their guidance system from overheating and provide better target tracking.
