The 155th Air Refueling Wing, Nebraska Air National Guard, conducted a three-day Nuclear Operational Readiness Exercise, Feb. 28 - Mar. 2, 2025, at the Nebraska National Guard air base in Lincoln, Nebraska. As part of a joint effort, a KC-135R Stratotanker from the 185th Air Refueling Wing, Iowa Air National Guard, joined with Nebraska’s aircraft to participate in the Alert Aircraft Repositioning Plan portion of the exercise, demonstrating a unified front, reinforcing strategic partnerships and interoperability. A NORE enhances combat readiness by evaluating a unit’s ability to execute nuclear missions with precision while integrating global operations with combatant commands, U.S. agencies and allies to deter, detect and, if necessary, defeat strategic threats.
