The 163d Attack Wing, California Air National Guard, conducted a nine-day combat readiness inspection, testing and validating the Wing’s ability to perform its mission in contingency and Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) contested environments through March 20, 2026, March Air Reserve Base, Calif. Exercise Grizzly Talon is a crucial tool for assessing the Wing’s ability to execute mission-essential tasks through performance-based observations conducted by an inspector general team. During the exercise, inspectors evaluated mission execution, compliance, safety, and the Wing’s capability to operate under realistic contested conditions, such as a 24-hour power and computer network outage, jammed radios, flu-like symptoms, and loss of critical infrastructure.
