U.S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. Daniel Smith, left, and Senior Airman Aaron Shatwell, both 147th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron crew chiefs, conduct basic preflight and postflight inspections on an MQ-9 Reaper aircraft at Keflavík Air Base, Iceland, during exercise Northern Viking 26, Aug. 28, 2026. The MQ-9 supports a search and rescue training mission alongside a U.S. Navy P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft and an Icelandic Coast Guard Airbus H225 Super Puma. Practicing and sustaining SAR capabilities strengthens the relationships, interoperability and military readiness required for U.S. and Allied forces to respond together during real-world emergencies.
