Summary
Sergeant Brandon Dickensheet, 263rd Army Air Missile Defense Command, scans the skies in front of an Avenger Air Defense System during Amalgam Dart 20-4 live-fly training exercise at McGhee Tyson Air National Guard Base, Tennessee, Nov. 20, 2019. Amalgam Dart 20-4 is a North American Aerospace Defense Command live-fly exercise designed to test NORAD’s ability to deploy its integrated Air Defense System (IADS) and execute its aerospace control missions at a non-designated air control alert facility. The training scenario replicated airborne intercepts of aircraft that violated temporary flight restricted airspace over the greater Knoxville, Tenn. area. For more than 60 years, NORAD aircraft have identified and intercepted potential air threats to North America in the execution of the command’s aerospace warning and aerospace control missions.
