Two U.S. Air Force pilots assigned to the 67th Special Operations Wing, 352d Special Operations Wing, conduct a day to night transition flight out of an MC-130J Commando II, near Croatia. The flight was ahead of a helicopter air-to-air refueling with the U.S. Air Force HH-60G Pave Hawk pilot, assigned to the 56th Rescue Squadron, based out of Aviano Air Base, Italy, over Croatian waters, May 28, 2020. This 352 SOW air refueling capability enables platforms in the European Theatre to fly long distances without landing, extending the combat radius for pilots on complex missions. The event was part of the 352 SOWs training mission to enhance readiness and maintain a ready and capable force. Through this type of training, SOF members remain postured to execute global response operations and support multiple NATO allies and partners in the Black Sea and Balkans region during the global COVID-19 crisis.
