A U.S. Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon takes off during Exercise Ballast Cannon 24.3 at an undisclosed location in the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility, Jan. 9, 2024. Conducted nearly quarterly in collaboration with the Royal Bahraini Air Force, Exercise Ballast Cannon aims to enhance the U.S. Air Force's rapid expeditionary capabilities by integrating Agile Combat Employment objectives for the F-16 Fighting Falcon, KC-135 Stratotanker, and operational support personnel. Agile Combat Employment shifts generation of airpower from large centralized bases, to networks of smaller, dispersed locations to increase survivability and complicate adversary planning.
