A Air Force Airman assigned to the 1st Special Operations Wing, prepares to conduct Forward Arming and Refueling Point operations during Emerald Warrior 24 FTX II highway landing operation in Bono, Arkansas, August 4, 2024. The ability to refuel aircraft in contested spaces is a critical element of Agile Combat Employment. FARPs enable Air Force Special Operations Command aircraft to quickly refuel, rearm, and return to the fight, reducing downtime and increasing operational tempo.
