The Air Force is facing a readiness crisis, one that threatens our airmen’s ability to prevail in a peer conflict.

Between constrained physical range space, electromagnetic spectrum challenges, and operational security, it’s tough. However, we must do better. As the saying goes, we must train like we fight, or we may lose in the next war.
