    A 7th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron weapons load crew member assists in the transportation of the Launcher Load Frame to the flight-line for loading at Dyess Air Force Base, Texas, Jan. 9, 2023. The concept for pre-loading munitions has been around since the B-1 first entered service but has gone unused for 30 years until 7 AMXS resurrected the capability this winter. The LLF is a piece of equipment that allows weapons loaders to pre-load munitions on a launcher, under the cover of a facility, prior to transporting the entire launcher/munition package to the flight-line for loading on the aircraft.
