U.S. Air Force 354th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron crew chief, performs pre-flight checks on an F-16 Fighting Falcon belonging to the 18th Aggressor Squadron as part of the Red Flag 22-2 exercise at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, June 16, 2022. Pilots rely on the exceptional efforts of their ground crews and maintenance teams to keep their aircraft flying reliably due to the high-stress demands of constant flying. Red Flag-Alaska is the only exercise of its kind that provides allied nations and joint-partner forces the opportunity to see mock combat and high operational working tempo in a simulated deployed environment.
