A U.S. Air Force F-22 Raptor assigned to the 90th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron taxis down the flightline ahead of a forward area refueling point training during Exercise Agile Reaper 24-1 at Northwest Field spoke, Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, April 16, 2024. FARP procedures enable a tanker craft, such as a C-17 Globemaster III to refuel the F-22 Raptor while both aircraft keep engines running, known as hot refueling. This capability enables the 3rd Air Expeditionary Wing to refuel in austere environments. The future of warfare includes multi-domain, disaggregated high-end conflict and the 3rd AEW is training in a combat-representative environment to prepare its warfighters.
