Eagles for Korea: US Air Force airmen are helping in the delivery of two new F-15K Eagles to Seoul, South Korea. Theses are the first two of 40 K model F-15s South Korea purchased from Boeing for $4.2 billion. Boeing and South Korea Air Force pilots are flying the fighters to Seoul, aided by aerial refuelings from the Hawaii Air National Guard KC-135s. The fighters will stop at Andersen AFB, Guam, before flying on to Seoul.
The United Kingdom’s Royal Air Force has unveiled a new electronic warfare drone designed to fly with fighter jets into contested airspace, including alongside its fleet of F-35s. RAF says it plans to develop models that draw on the U.S. Air Force’s approach of mating unmanned systems with crewed platforms.
