National Defense Strategy‘s effort in maintaining global peace and stability.
“This [deployment] allows our pilots and maintainers to train alongside one another, learn and apply best practices and ensure the joint force remains agile and responsive in the Pacific,” said Lt. Col. Brian Nash,
F-22 Detachment commander, MCAS-Iwakuni. “This exercise demonstrates the Total Force’s ability to rapidly and unpredictably project combat power to a place and time of our choosing.”
DFE operations fall under the scope of Agile Combat Employment capabilities which allows
Pacific Air Forces to continuously exercise ways to improve passive and active defense capabilities to ensure a competitive advantage and to protect assets and personnel in the future.
