    An F-22 Raptor with the 525th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron out of Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, rests on the airfield after receiving fuel from a C-17 Globemaster III out of Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina, during Exercise Bamboo Eagle 24-1 at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, Feb. 2, 2024. Airmen from Yokota Air Base, Japan; Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii; JBER; and JB Charleston, aligned various skillsets to complete the first-ever Air Mobility Command-to-F-22 Raptor refueling. BE 24-1 was a first-of-its-kind exercise directed by the U.S. Air Force Warfare Center and is composed of approximately 3,000 U.S. joint service members, allies and partners from the Royal Air Force and Royal Australian Air Force, and more than 150 aircraft from 24 units dispersed across more than 10 locations in the western U.S. Through the use of designated air space, BE 24-1 provided Airmen, allies and partners a flexible, combat-representative, multidimensional battlespace to conduct testing tactics development and advanced training in support of U.S. national interests.
