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.
A single-pallet-sized tactical operations center is slated to begin shipping to 70 Air Force units by the end of the year following a recent announcement by the company that made it and the Air Force entity responsible for its development.
