U.S. Staff Sgt. Joshua Tate, 36th Airlift Wing religious affairs specialist, discusses aircraft security measures with Japan Maritime Self Defense Force during practice drills with a JMSDF C-130H Hercules during the Cope North 23 exercise, at the Iwo To Japan Maritime Self Defense Force Air Station, Japan, Feb 21, 2023. Advance teams and aircraft require protection in potentially contested areas that is provided by security specialists, but ACE training with mission partners can enable forces from other areas to supplement defender positions as required, making for a more flexible force that requires less manpower overall to complete the same effort otherwise. Airfield security procedures vary from country to country, so cross-training efforts that follow Agile Combat Deployment methodologies help improve the interoperability of allied forces and provides additional strategic planning options, allowing for partner forces to respond to emergency situations more effectively.
