December 6, 2014 - U.S. Air Force
A-10 Thunderbolts and C-17 Globemasters and approximately
130 U.S. Army paratroopers from the 82nd Airborne Division
participate in the Joint Forcible Entry Exercise 14-B (JFE 14-B)
over Keno Airfield on the Nevada Test & Training Range at Nellis Air
Force Base.
JFE is a US Air Force Weapons School large
scale air mobility exercise in which participants plan and execute a
complex air-land operation in a simulated contested battlefield. JFE
exercises participants' ability to synchronize aircraft movements
from geographically-separated bases, command large formations of
dissimilar aircraft in high threat airspace, and tactically deliver
and recover combat forces via air drops and combat landings on an
unimproved landing strip.
