Agile Spartan 25.1 was a multi-day Agile Combat Employment exercise that moved deployed Airmen and U.S. aircraft from AEW’s within the Ninth Air Force (Air Forces Central) to forward operating locations. At the start of the exercise, Airmen loaded pallets with equipment, bottled water and meals, ready to eat for transport to a forward operating location in support of USCENTCOM operations. This long-planned exercise validated the ability to integrate with regional partners and generate combat air power from forward operating locations to support the command’s theater campaign strategy.
