The Air Force’s newest fighter, Boeing’s F-15EX, will participate in the bi-annual Northern Edge exercise in the far North — which will have a heavy focus on Joint All Domain Command and Control (JADC2), says Lt. Gen. David Krumm, head of the service’s Alaska Command.
“We have about 4,000 participants this year: 50 units, over 200 aircraft from all of the joint services,” Krumm said. “All over Alaska, we’re going to be fighting from sub-surface up to space, and practicing our abilities in a very difficult electromagnetic spectrum. We’re going to look at new technologies; we’re going to look at new tactics and procedures on how do we incorporate those going forward.”
