The sun rises over four F-16 fighting falcons assigned to the 148th Fighter Wing, Minnesota Air National Guard. The 148th conducted an Agile Combat Employment, ACE, exercise November 17-19, 2021. ACE is a concept that enables flying units to quickly deploy personnel and jets to remote or degraded environments with a much smaller blueprint. Pilots, aircraft maintenance personnel, fuels specialists, communications personnel and security forces simulated a deployment to a remote airfield with limited infrastructure. Airmen established new workspaces and infrastructure with limited equipment and time. Exercises like these enable Airmen to plan, problem solve and think critically while launching, recovering and maintaining the Wing’s F-16 fighter aircraft. ( Air National Guard photo by Lt. Col.
