Thunderbolt IIs launch into Alaskan skies during RF-A 16-2
A pair of U.S. Air Force A-10 Thunderbolt II twin-engine, ground-attack aircraft assigned to the 354th Fighter Squadron (FS) out of Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., depart from Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, June 7, 2016, to fly toward the Joint Pacific Alaska Range Complex during RED FLAG-Alaska 16-2. U.S. and partner nation forces like the 354 FS "Bulldogs" use this Pacific Air Forces commander-directed field training exercise to sharpen their combat skills by flying simulated combat sorties in a realistic threat environment inside the more than 67,000 square mile Joint Pacific Alaska Range Complex, the largest instrumented air, ground and electronic combat training range in the world.
