Sounds like they may be doing something in Alaska not Nellis. Makes a little more sense - closer to home for them.

I think the last exercise I did up there, they changed the name from Cope Thunder to Red Flag Alaska. Makes a lot more sense.

[Brett327]

Yeah, the Swedes. They're at RF this week.

I meant AW members

Got it. My comment HAD (more than seven months ago) more to do with the fencecheck photogs and the presumed level of excitement they would have - if this had turned out to be true. Back to 2013

T'was all just the magic of CGI...

 

[Brett327]

Not in 1986 it wasn't.

 

[MasterBates]

This was the CGI in 1986
