An entry in the Dec. 9 Daily Report erroneously stated who called for an investigation into a coalition airstrike on ISIS fighters in a hospital in Mosul, Iraq. Lt. Gen. Stephen Townsend, commander of Combined Joint Task Force-Operation Inherent Resolve, requested the investigation. The original entry has been updated.
A semi-autonomous Collaborative Combat Aircraft drone shot down an air-to-air target in a Dec. 8 test supported by the U.S. Air Force, a notable milestone in the development of the loyal wingman-type drones that will join the fleets of the USAF, other American services, and allies and adversaries.
