'Today's Air Force' features the F-15 return to flight

  • Published
This week's edition of "Today's Air Force" highlights how the Air Force carried on its mission while more than seven hundred of its F-15 Eagles were grounded.  See its return to flight -- the Eagle flies once again!

Also featured is the F-16 Fighting Falcon with its twenty-millimeter cannon and capability to carry six missiles, and a top speed of 1,500 miles per hour. See the diversity this aircraft displays in Southwest Asia on a daily basis.

Finally, the mission of the Air Force is to deliver sovereign options for the defense of the United States of America and its global interests -- to fly and fight in air, space and cyberspace. It's a big undertaking and the success of every mission is dependent upon teamwork.
