A U.S. Air Force maintainer from the 914th Aerial Refueling Wing prepares to marshal a KC-135 onto the flight line at Cecil airfield, Florida, during Checkered FLag 24-2, May 15, 2024. Checkered Flag, hosted by the 325th Fighter Wing, is one of the DoD’s largest air-to-air exercises and is designed to integrate 4th- and 5th-generation airframes to enhance mobility and employment capabilities of aviators and maintainers. The exercise responds to Air Combat Command’s plan to train the Immediate Response Force, a dedicated force for “rapid response” to unforeseen or unplanned operations.
