Florida Air National Guard's 125th Fighter Wing, Detachment 1, F-15C takes off from Homestead Air Reserve Base, Florida in support of North American Aerospace Defense Command's (NORAD) Operation Noble Defender (OND), June 30, 2022. As a part of OND, a routine operation, the Continental NORAD Region (CONR) coordinated and conducted joint operations with the Navy while concurrently launching jets from different locations across the United States gulf coast and Puerto Rico. OND is an integrated air and missile defense operation designed to ensure the defense and security of the northern and southern approaches to North America. This particular OND allowed NORAD units to exercise maneuvers intended to defend the southern approach to the United States from simulated cruise missile threats. NORAD is a bi-national Canadian and American command that employs a network of aerial, ground-based, and space-based sensors, air-to-air refueling tankers, and fighter aircraft controlled by a sophisticated command and control network to deter, detect and defend against aerial threats that originate outside or within North American airspace.
