US Air Forces in Europe plans to send a mobile vehicle maintenance team to Mozambique this month to offer local military forces insight into how USAF manages vehicle support. The visit marks USAF’s first military-to-military interface with the African nation, although the US Air Force has participated in humanitarian actions in the area. The airmen on the team are coming from Ramstein AB, Germany, and RAF Lakenheath, England.
The U.S. military is maintaining a beefed-up presence in the Middle East, including fighters and air defense assets, following the U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities June 22 and subsequent retaliation by the Iranians against Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar.
