USAF F-15E released four Small Diameter Bombs from two separate carriages on Aug. 25 during a test at Eglin, AFB, Fla., where full capability testing of the SDB system is under way. According to a Boeing statement the test was conducted at 15,000 feet and 20 miles from four targets—intending to further demonstrate the optimal trajectory to the target, heading and velocity of the weapons.
Air Force depots are not typically meant for quick repair jobs, but during Operation Epic Fury, the service moved some of its stateside heavy maintenance capability forward to fix battle-damaged aircraft closer to the fight.
