An F-16C Fighting Falcon, assigned to the 77th Expeditionary

An F-16C Fighting Falcon, assigned to the 77th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron, takes off Feb. 2, 2021, at King Faisal Air Base, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. F-16s from the 77th EFS, along with a contingent of maintenance personnel from the 77th Fighter Generation Squadron, conducted a two-day training exercise with the Royal Saudi Air Force to capitalize on each other’s strengths while bolstering interoperability. Integrating with the host nation in locations throughout the country amplifies the 378th AEW’s mission of projecting combat airpower in support of theater plans and operations. The event was the second recent joint exercise at KFAB as the U.S. and RSAF continue to build on lessons learned to forge even stronger resolute partnerships. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt.
