Air Force Secretary Michael Wynne compares Billy Mitchell’s efforts to prove airpower’s potential to the effort facing USAF today to prove that cyberspace is a critically important warfighting domain. He writes in a new letter to airmen, “Our cyber airmen’s work is a prerequisite to all military operations: ensuring freedom of action across the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS), which in turn contributes to freedom from attack and freedom to attack in all other domains—land, sea, air, and space.”
The Air Force on Jan. 6 released nearly a dozen photos of F-22 and F-35 fighters returning to Puerto Rico after supporting the raid to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro—the first official images of forces who participated in Operation Absolute Resolve.
