Takashi Fujishin, 160th Attack Squadron pilot instructor, California Air National Guard, reviews the flight plan with his fellow instructors during a crew brief before a training flight, March Air Reserve Base, Calif., July 8, 2026. Through Total Force Integration, the 160th Attack Squadron, comprised of California Air National Guardsmen, and the 492nd Attack Squadron, comprised of active-duty Airmen, work together to facilitate instruction at the Formal Training Unit. Operating a remotely piloted aircraft in an area shared with commercial airliners and general aviation leaves no room for error. To become an instructor, pilots and sensor operators complete an extensive course averaging six months. (U.S. Air National Guard Photograph by Senior Master Sgt. Julianne Sitterding)
