The Texas Air National Guard’s 111th Fighter Squadron, part of the 147th Fighter Wing in Houston, has painted one of its F-16s to reflect the squadron’s 90-year history. The rudder has the look of a JN-4 Jenny. The blue fuselage recalls a color scheme from the Korean War, while the grey belly represents the jet age. An N5 A painted on the fuselage is a reminder of the unit’s P-51 days during World War II. And more, in this release.
Air Force Gen. Alexus G. Grynkewich assumed command of U.S. European Command on July 1, taking over the key assignment as the U.S. and its allies contend with a resurgent Russia and a grinding war in Ukraine.
