U.S. Air Force Maj. Daniel Thompson, 8th Fighter Squadron instructor pilot, conducts an F-16 Viper training sortie over White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, Aug. 22, 2023. The 54th Fighter Group is one of the premier fighter pilot training groups, training over 50 percent of the Air Force’s Viper pilots. The extensive training takes students fresh from Undergraduate Pilot Training and molds them into highly skilled, combat-ready aviators prepared to support combatant command priorities in any potential future conflicts.
