Airmen from the 386th Expeditionary Logistics Readiness Squadron load a contracted Ilyushin IL-76 aircraft with cargo pallets as part of Global Heavyweight Service at Ali Al Salem Air Base, Kuwait, July 9, 2019. The U.S. Air Forces Central Command’s Air Mobility Division and Airlift Control Team orchestrate the utilization of commercial international heavyweight air tenders to move cargo.
