Engineers from the 1st Expeditionary RED HORSE Group from Nellis AFB, Nev., are removing and replacing Soviet-era steel planking covering 60,000 square meters of ramp space at Bagram AB, Afghanistan. The work is part of a $4.4 million airfield construction project. When finished, the airfield will provide US and coalition aircraft supporting Operation Enduring Freedom with a better place to park, according to Capt. Todd Williams.
An important U.S. Air Force E-3 Sentry AWACS command and control plane was among the aircraft damaged in a March 27 Iranian missile and drone attack on Prince Sultan Air Base, Saudi Arabia, people familiar with the matter told Air & Space Forces Magazine.
