Agile Combat Employment (ACE) keeps the U.S. Air Force one step ahead by dispersing airpower across smaller, agile locations. It begins with mission ready Airmen who are trained in their specialty, flexible enough to take on more, and prepared to operate in any environment. ACE isn’t a one-time exercise—it’s a mindset, a way of life, and the blueprint for the future of airpower. This is how we remain lethal and resilient to win the fight.
