The Montana Air National Guard’s 120th Fighter Wing is sending more than 150 airmen and eight F-16s to participate in close air support training at Davis-Monthan AFB, Ariz., reports the Great Falls Tribune. The two-week exercise, which kicks off Dec. 1, is called Snowbird.
The Air Force has selected Collins Aerospace and Shield AI to develop the software Collaborative Combat Aircraft will use to fly missions alongside manned fighters, the service revealed Feb. 12—and drone-maker General Atomics was quick to announce it has already flown its YFQ-42A aircraft with Collins’ system.
