U.S. Air Force Airmen and master labor contractors assigned to the 18th Civil Engineer Squadron reattach a tire to the barrier tape after an aircraft arresting system certification at Kadena Air Base, Japan, May 7, 2026. During engagement with the aircraft, the kit’s barrier tape unwinds from the reel, creating a rotational force that builds hydraulic pressure, slowing the aircraft to a stop.
