USAFE Comes to Romania: US Air Forces in Europe recently sent a 30-member survey team to Romania’s Mihail Kogalniceanu Air Base to survey the airfield’s condition to host joint operations with the Romanian Air Force. The US and Romania signed an agreement earlier this month for US use of Romanian bases.
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.
