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.

The U.S. Army Reserve is receiving a weapon technology known as the CROWS, allowing the gunner to sit safely in the back seat. The CROWS stands for Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station, mounted to the top of a vehicle, equipped with daytime and thermal cameras, able to rotate 360 degrees, see up to 1,500 meters away, and compatible with four major crew weapon systems. In all, it’s estimated that 27 companies will receive the units, 19 of which are military police. The project is estimated to field approximately $39 million worth of equipment to the Army Reserve.
