00:00.288 --> 00:01.196
(keyboard clacking)

00:01.196 --> 00:04.446
(dramatic synth music)

00:12.060 --> 00:13.600
- Dissimilar air combat training is,

00:13.600 --> 00:15.640
really, it's exactly what it sounds like.

00:15.640 --> 00:17.220
It's the opportunity to
bring different types

00:17.220 --> 00:19.240
of airplanes from different squadrons

00:19.410 --> 00:22.573
together in the same piece of
sky for air combat training.

00:23.160 --> 00:25.510
In the near future, we
will see a steady increase

00:25.510 --> 00:27.823
in fifth-generation
aircraft across Europe,

00:28.270 --> 00:29.620
whether it's rotational aircraft

00:29.620 --> 00:32.363
stopping by for a few weeks,
like the F-22 Raptors,

00:32.870 --> 00:36.110
or permanently assigned F-35
Lightnings at RAF Marham

00:36.430 --> 00:38.900
and other future operating
locations across Europe,

00:38.900 --> 00:40.400
to include here at Lakenheath.

00:41.030 --> 00:42.660
It is absolutely critical we learn

00:42.660 --> 00:44.030
how to best operate together

00:44.030 --> 00:46.323
in order to secure the
sovereign skies above.

00:46.520 --> 00:49.000
The days of a single
service or single nation

00:49.020 --> 00:50.653
going it alone are likely over.

00:51.060 --> 00:52.860
The name of the game today is joint,

00:52.870 --> 00:55.963
coalition, alliance, multi-domain.

00:56.840 --> 00:58.710
The more we train with
our brothers and sisters

00:58.710 --> 01:00.910
from the other services
and partner nations,

01:01.220 --> 01:03.460
the more ready we will be to own the skies

01:03.560 --> 01:06.173
and strike at will across
the spectrum of conflict.

01:06.680 --> 01:09.523
This is our group's
contribution to global security.
