00:00.412 --> 00:03.662
(slow, dramatic music)

00:06.630 --> 00:09.010
- Seymour Johnson airmen participated

00:09.010 --> 00:12.890
in a multi-capable airman
demonstration of air power

00:12.890 --> 00:15.340
by conducting an integrated combat turn

00:16.746 --> 00:19.530
at Cherry Point Marine Corps Air Station.

00:19.530 --> 00:23.960
Also working with our joint
partners, we had marines

00:23.960 --> 00:26.770
from the 6th Marines
Communication Division

00:26.770 --> 00:29.740
that came up and provided communications

00:29.740 --> 00:33.110
from Cherry Point back to our
tactical operations center

00:33.110 --> 00:35.523
and they helped with that C2 application.

00:36.840 --> 00:40.750
We had support from Dover
C-17s that flew us in and out

00:40.750 --> 00:45.320
and we were able to conduct
an integrated combat turn,

00:45.320 --> 00:49.750
refueling and re-arming
two F-15E Strike Eagles

00:49.750 --> 00:51.163
from the 336th.

00:52.119 --> 00:55.786
(fast-tempo dramatic music)

01:01.770 --> 01:05.710
Air Combat Command is
evolving to the MCA concept

01:05.710 --> 01:08.310
in order to increase our survivability

01:08.310 --> 01:11.100
by being unpredictable in our tactics.

01:11.100 --> 01:13.290
Keeping all our assets in one base

01:13.290 --> 01:15.560
so it's just one big target
is not the way ahead.

01:15.560 --> 01:18.430
We need to be able to fight and survive

01:18.430 --> 01:21.630
by being unpredictable and
moving at different points

01:21.630 --> 01:23.410
and different times to carry the fight

01:23.410 --> 01:27.490
as close to the main
effort so that our enemies

01:27.490 --> 01:29.590
can't target us as easily as they used to.

01:34.000 --> 01:35.970
We're asking for support from supervisors,

01:35.970 --> 01:38.500
we're asking support
from Air Combat Command.

01:38.500 --> 01:42.080
We're asking for flexibility
in training calendars

01:42.080 --> 01:45.580
and we're asking
specifically for good people

01:45.580 --> 01:47.450
who want to go out and be a part of this,

01:47.450 --> 01:48.950
'cause this is an exciting thing.

01:48.950 --> 01:50.760
This is an exciting opportunity,

01:50.760 --> 01:55.760
the wing is one of the forefront
leaders in the MCA concept

01:56.150 --> 01:58.150
and the fact that we have joint partners

01:58.150 --> 01:59.960
and other air force partners that want

01:59.960 --> 02:02.800
to participate with us is a huge deal.

02:02.800 --> 02:04.160
We need to maintain the momentum,

02:04.160 --> 02:06.270
we need to maintain the energy

02:06.270 --> 02:07.810
and this is only gonna grow.

02:07.810 --> 02:11.810
We just need people to show
up with good attitudes,

02:11.810 --> 02:15.970
open minds and to want to
work and to demonstrate

02:15.970 --> 02:17.990
capabilities, and as
long as we can do that,

02:17.990 --> 02:20.632
this is gonna be a successful enterprise.

02:20.632 --> 02:23.882
(dramatic outro music)
