Accelerate Change: Empowered Airmen

We live in a world that is driven by rapidly changing technology and an environment that includes aggressive and capable global competitors. Airmen are key to cutting unnecessary bureaucracy, recognizing and understanding our competition, and thinking of creative ways we can reshape the design of our Air Force. The Air Force must accelerate, must change, and must prepare for the future!

This page is dedicated towards highlighting the accomplishments of our talented Airmen at all levels and to show the impact they can make when they are informed and empowered to problem solve and make smart recommendations and decisions.

Cannon AFB provides largest AC-130J Ghostrider presence for Exercise Balikatan 2023
Exercise Balikatan
April 7, 2023 | 2:02
The 17th Special Operations Squadron, from Cannon Air Force Base, is providing two AC-130J Ghostrider Gunships in support of Balikatan 23. The AC-130J is a highly modified C-130J aircraft with a Precision Strike Package, which includes precision-guided munitions delivery capability as well as 30mm and 105mm weapons. The gunship's long loiter time and deep magazine make it a viable fires platform in the region and a strong asset in maintaining a free and open Indo-Pacific. Balikatan is an annual exercise between the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the U.S. Military designed to strengthen bilateral interoperability, capabilities, trust, and cooperation built over decades of shared experiences.
