The world’s first independent Air Force. #SecuringTheSkies
Great video of US Air Force F-15 aircraft taking off from Royal air force base. The United States Air Force (USAF) is the aerial warfare service branch of the United States Armed Forces.
ARLINGTON, Va. - The Air National Guard will unveil an upgrade to the radar system for its F-15 Eagle fighter aircraft today, which will give it greater capabilities while reducing maintenance costs.
The new radar system—the APG-63(v)3 Active Electronically Scanned Array—replaces the older mechanically controlled devices currently in the aircraft.
"When the F-15 was first designed and made, the radar in it was world class, the best at the time, but its 1970s technology," said Air Force Maj. Dave Slaydon, chief of F-15 requirements for the Air National Guard. "It's a mechanically scanned array, meaning it's a radar dish like you would see in the movies and it has hydraulics that move it back and forth to point around the sky to find the bad guys."
The new radar system does away with the hydraulics system completely.
"With this new technology it is a flat panel with a bunch of little panels on it and you can electronically steer the radar beam around," said Slaydon.
A radar controlled electronically, rather than mechanically, has a number of benefits, including less maintenance on the equipment.
"Since there are no moving parts to it, it hardly ever breaks," said Slaydon. "There aren't any hydraulics or mechanical parts banging around. That gives it a really, really high reliability rate which is good for us as it means the jet is [available] more often to fly as there are less maintenance actions required on it."
But, said Slaydon, the big plus is the improved capabilities of the radar unit.
"The performance part is where we really make the money," said Slaydon. "With that technology of the radar being electronically controlled, the beam can be pointed all around the sky in fractions of a second."
That translates to a greater situational awareness, said Slaydon.
"What that allows you to do is to track multiple targets and be able to engage multiple targets," he said. "It also gives you a greater detection range, so you can find the bad guys at a further range and it has increased identification capabilities as well where the radar can scan the radar signature and tell if it's a Boeing 747 or is it a fighter-type of jet."
Development of the improved F-15 radar system has been ongoing for about the past five years, said Slaydon, adding that it has been an Air National Guard-led program from the beginning.
"We have partnered with the active duty Air Force, and they have taken a huge role in the program," he said. "But it was conceived by, developed by and we're fielding it first in the Air National Guard so that's a big feather in our cap."
The radar will be fielded by the 125th Fighter Wing, based in Jacksonville, Fla., said Slaydon. Units in the Oregon and Louisiana Air National Guard will be the next to get the radar sets.
Fielding in Florida and Oregon is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2010, and Louisiana is scheduled to receive the upgrades in the early part of 2011.
"We're spreading out the initial beddown to put the capability where it's needed geographically," Slaydon said. "After that initial issue, we'll then go in a fill in with a few more as needed."
He added that future sites may include Massachusetts and Montana.
Although the new radar units are specifically for the F-15, the technology translates to other fighter platforms as well, said Slaydon, adding that it has been incorporated into the F-22 Raptor.
The fielding of the equipment speaks to the capabilities of the Air Guard. "It just shows that the Air National Guard is committed to air dominance," said Slaydon. "That applies to both our homeland defense mission as well as our worldwide capabilities that we bring air dominance to the combatant commanders worldwide. That includes modernizing our jets to bring the capabilities to what the mission requires."

US Air Force B2 stealth bombers arrive at UK royal air force base to send message to Russian President Vladimir Putin. The Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit, also known as the Stealth Bomber.
ROYAL AIR FORCE FAIRFORD, England -- For more than 50 years the B-52H Stratofortress has served as the backbone of the United States' strategic bomber force. The B-52 is capable of dropping or launching the widest array of weapons in the U.S. inventory, including gravity bombs, cluster bombs, precision guided missiles and joint direct attack munitions to complete its conventional mission.
Many might associate the B-52 with its nuclear role, but today the aircraft and its crews are forward deployed to Royal Air Force Fairford, England, to demonstrate the conventional capabilities the airframe offers.
"Associating the B-52 mission with a conventional mission and dropping conventional bombs is important, because it's a capability that we have and are proficient in and train to all the time," said Capt. Jeffery Shaw, 5th Bomb Wing weapons officer.
While at RAF Fairford, the 23rd Expeditionary Bomb Squadron used three B-52Hs to drop inert munitions into a target zone in Latvia and off the coast of Sweden, participate in simulated air strikes, provide naval support to vessels from 15 countries, and coordinate with Latvian, Polish and Lithuanian Joint Terminal Attack Controllers.
In a conventional conflict, the B-52 can perform strategic attack, air interdiction, offensive counter-air, close air support and maritime operations.
"This is a pretty phenomenal opportunity because we're integrating the B-52 on an international scale with NATO and Baltic nations," Shaw said. "We have multiple fighter aircraft across this whole area that we're doing close air support work with--Latvian, Lithuanian and Polish JTACs...it's definitely a chance for the B-52 to showcase its capability."
While participating in various training scenarios during BALTOPS 15 and Saber Strike 15, air and ground crew members demonstrate the sustained capabilities of the B-52 and its ability to provide a credible, flexible and sustained bomber presence anywhere and anytime.
Shaw noted it's important the B-52s are participating in conventional missions in the Baltics, while operating out of a forward deployed location, projecting an expeditionary airpower. This means crew members are able to reinforce their ability to operate from a forward deployed location and employ the B-52 in a realistic close air support scenario.
Bomber operations provide a visible signal that highlights the United States' ability to deter strategic attacks, and the flexibility and range of the aircraft were seen during Operation Desert Storm, the Gulf War, Operation Allied Force and Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom.
As seen in previous operations, the B-52 provides the ability to respond to any potential crisis, future crisis or challenge and their operations shall continue well into 2040.
The aircraft and support personnel deployed from Minot Air Force Base, North Dakota, along with men and women from Whiteman AFB, Missouri; F. E. Warren AFB, Wyoming; Langley AFB, Virginia; Malmstrom AFB, Montana; Navy Munitions Command Unit Charleston, and Barksdale AFB, Louisiana, to support a planned B-2 and B-52 bomber deployment to England.

Reel one.
Three Provost aircraft fly low over Cranwell college. An R.A.F. bus stops outside the college gates, inside the bus young cadets in civilian cloths look through the window at the planes and the college. We identify Howard and Ellis as they watch the Provosts peel off in different directions. In the college entrance hall Howard and Ellis take the Oath of Allegiance. On the walls are portraits of famous airmen, Lord Trenchard and Douglas Bader. In stores Howard and Ellis receive their flying equipment and helmet and Howard is being measured for his uniform. In a classroom the cadets are being lectured on the principle of flight. In front of the main building Senior Cadet Officer takes the salute as the R.A.F. flag is lowered.
A Sergeant shouts at Howard as a squad of cadets march up and down. Interior, an instructor lectures around a jet engine, we see the engine turning. On a runway cadets cluster around a jet aircraft as an instructor points out features. Air to air a Chipmonk is in flight, in the cockpit Ellis receives instruction. In small cubicles Ellis and other cadets are being instructed in navigation, they talk into mouth pieces and plot their routes on charts. Howard and Ellis are seen studying in their rooms and the library. Ellis receives individual tuition from a tutor in front of a cosy fire.
The cadets are seen cross-country running, sailing dinghies on a river, playing football and rugby. In Scotland the cadets are erecting tents by a lake, an officer looks on as they cook and adjust their tents. In the air, Howard sitting next to his instructor, is flying a jet Provost.
On the tarmac Provosts are lined up. In the Squadron Operations room a senior instructor briefs the cadets with words like "echelon starboard and run in". The cadets drink coffee and chat in their crew room, two of them walk out onto the tarmac. In the cockpit of a Provost Howard is being briefed before flying solo. As the instructor drives to the control tower in a Landrover, we see details in the cockpit as Howard prepares for his flight. Air to Air we see the plane take off and fly, intercut between Howard and the control tower giving instructions. The plain lands successfully.Back on the tarmac Howard is criticised by his instructor, undaunted Howard joins his pal Ellis and others and they move off together.
A Valetta aircraft is in flight, inside a Navigation instructor walks down the gangway talking to cadets as they check their maps. Shots of the Valetta in flight. Shot looking up at the clock tower pan down to entrance of the main Cranwell building as cadets enter. Inside the cadets walk to their various activities. A French lesson, radio or radar equipment demonstration, a group of cadets around a wind tunnel demonstration showing aerofoils under pressure.
Officers and cadets attend a grand diner in full military evening dress, a military band plays music. A batman brings Howard his uniform, Ellis joins him, they are now senior cadets and they plan a flight on a map. Provosts in the air flying over countryside and buildings. Air to air shots VG pictures as they fly in formation and do aerobatics.
In a large classroom the cadets ask military questions to a British Major and a U.S.A.A.A.F. Major, places are pointed to on wall maps.
Air to Air Valetta in flight, navigator speaks to pilot, he looks at his watch and the pilot gives a thumbs up. All is well and the plane flies on.
Continues.

A great video showing the Royal air force is ready to confront the Sukhoi Su 35 if called upon. The Royal Air Force (RAF) is the United Kingdom's aerial warfare force. Formed toward the end of the First World War on 1 April 1918,[3] it is the oldest independent air force in the world.[4] Following victory over the Central Powers in 1918 the RAF emerged as, at the time, the largest air force in the world.[5] Since its formation, the RAF has taken a significant role in British military history, in particular, playing a large part in the Second World War where it fought its most famous campaign, the Battle of Britain.[6]
The RAF's mission is to support the objectives of the British Ministry of Defence (MoD), which are to "provide the capabilities needed: to ensure the security and defence of the United Kingdom and overseas territories, including against terrorism; to support the Government’s foreign policy objectives particularly in promoting international peace and security."[1] The RAF describe its mission statement as "... [to provide] An agile, adaptable and capable Air Force that, person for person, is second to none, and that makes a decisive air power contribution in support of the UK Defence Mission."[7] The mission statement is supported by the RAF's definition of air power, which guides its strategy. Air power is defined as: "The ability to project power from the air and space to influence the behaviour of people or the course of events."[8]
Today the Royal Air Force maintains an operational fleet of various types of aircraft,[9] described by the RAF as being "leading-edge" in terms of technology.[10] This largely consists of fixed-wing aircraft, including: fighter and strike aircraft, airborne early warning and control aircraft, ISTAR and SIGINT aircraft, aerial refueling aircraft and strategic and tactical transport aircraft. The majority of the RAF's rotary-wing aircraft form part of the tri-service Joint Helicopter Command in support of ground forces. Most of the RAF's aircraft and personnel are based in the UK, with many others serving on operations (principally Afghanistan) or at long-established overseas bases (Ascension Island, Cyprus, Gibraltar, and the Falkland Islands). Although the RAF is the principal British air power arm, the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm and the British Army's Army Air Corps also deliver air power which is integrated into the maritime, littoral and land environments.
History[edit]
Main article: History of the Royal Air Force
Origins[edit]
While the British were not the first to make use of heavier-than-air military aircraft, the RAF is the world's oldest independent air force: that is, the first air force to become independent of army or navy control.[4] It was founded on 1 April 1918, with headquarters located in the former Hotel Cecil, during the First World War, by the amalgamation of the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) and the Royal Naval Air Service (RNAS). At that time it was the largest air force in the world. After the war, the service was drastically cut and its inter-war years were relatively quiet, with the RAF taking responsibility for the control of Iraq and executing a number of minor actions in other parts of the British Empire. The RAF's naval aviation branch, the Fleet Air Arm, was founded in 1924 but handed over to Admiralty control on 24 May 1939.
The RAF developed the doctrine of strategic bombing which led to the construction of long-range bombers and became its main bombing strategy in the Second World War.[11]
Second World War[edit]
A later version of the Spitfires which played a major part in the Battle of Britain.
Further information: Air warfare of World War II
The RAF underwent rapid expansion prior to and during the Second World War. Under the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan of December 1939, the air forces of British Commonwealth countries trained and formed "Article XV squadrons" for service with RAF formations. Many individual personnel from these countries, and exiles from occupied Europe, also served with RAF squadrons. By the end of the war the Royal Canadian Air Force had contributed more than 30 squadrons to serve in RAF formations, similarly, approximately a quarter of Bomber Command's personnel were Canadian.[12] Additionally, the Royal Australian Air Force represented around nine percent of all RAF personnel who served in the European and Mediterranean theaters.[13]
The Avro Lancaster heavy bomber was extensively used during the strategic bombing of Germany.
In the Battle of Britain in 1940, the RAF (supplemented by 2 Fleet Air Arm Squadrons, Polish, Czecho-Slovak and other multinational pilots and ground personnel) defended the skies over Britain against the numerically superior German Luftwaffe. In what is perhaps the most prolonged and complicated air campaign in history, the Battle of Britain contributed significantly to the delay and subsequent indefinite postponement of Hitler's plans for an

The Royal Air Force (RAF) is the aerial warfare service branch of the British Armed Forces. Formed on 1 April 1918, it is the oldest independent air force in the world. The RAF has taken a significant role in British military history, playing a large part in the Second World War and in more recent conflicts.
The RAF is one of the most capable and technologically sophisticated air forces in the world. As of January 2012[update] it operated 827 aircraft, making it the largest air force of a European Union country and the second largest in NATO (after the USAF). Most of the RAF's aircraft and personnel are based in the UK, with many others serving on operations (principally Afghanistan and the Middle East) or at long-established overseas bases (Ascension Island, Cyprus, Gibraltar, and the Falkland Islands).
The RAF's mission is to support the objectives of the British Ministry of Defence (MoD), which are to "provide the capabilities needed: to ensure the security and defence of the United Kingdom and overseas territories, including against terrorism; to support the Government’s foreign policy objectives particularly in promoting international peace and security."

An air force, also known in some countries as an air army, is in the broadest sense, the national military organization that primarily conducts aerial warfare. More specifically, it is the branch of a nation's armed services that is responsible for aerial warfare as distinct from an army, navy or other branch. Typically, air forces are responsible for gaining control of the air, carrying out strategic and tactical bombing missions and providing support to surface forces.
The term "air force" may also refer to a tactical air force or numbered air force, which is an operational formation within a national air force. Air forces typically consist of a combination of fighters, bombers, helicopters, transport planes and other aircraft.
Many air forces are also responsible for operations of military space, intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM), and communications equipment. Some air forces may command and control other air defence assets such as antiaircraft artillery, surface-to-air missiles, or anti-ballistic missile warning networks and defensive systems. Some nations, principally Russia, the former Soviet Union and countries who modelled their militaries along Soviet lines, have an Air Defence Force which is organizationally separate from their air force.

The Royal Airforce College Cranwell (1961)The Royal Airforce College Cranwell (1961)
Reel one. Three Provost aircraft fly low over Cranwell college. An R.A.F. bus stops outside the college gates, inside the bus young cadets in civilian cloths look through the window at the planes and the college. We identify Howard and Ellis as they watch the Provosts peel off in different directions. In the college entrance hall Howard and Ellis take the Oath of Allegiance. On the walls are portraits of famous airmen, Lord Trenchard and Douglas Bader. In stores Howard and Ellis receive their flying equipment and helmet and Howard is being measured for his uniform. In a classroom the cadets are being lectured on the principle of flight. In front of the main building Senior Cadet Officer takes the salute as the R.A.F. flag is lowered. A Sergeant shouts at Howard as a squad of cadets march up and down. Interior, an instructor lectures around a jet engine, we see the engine turning. On a runway cadets cluster around a jet aircraft as an instructor points out features. Air to air a Chipmonk is in flight, in the cockpit Ellis receives instruction. In small cubicles Ellis and other cadets are being instructed in navigation, they talk into mouth pieces and plot their routes on charts. Howard and Ellis are seen studying in their rooms and the library. Ellis receives individual tuition from a tutor in front of a cosy fire. The cadets are seen cross-country running, sailing dinghies on a river, playing football and rugby. In Scotland the cadets are erecting tents by a lake, an officer looks on as they cook and adjust their tents. In the air, Howard sitting next to his instructor, is flying a jet Provost. On the tarmac Provosts are lined up. In the Squadron Operations room a senior instructor briefs the cadets with words like "echelon starboard and run in". The cadets drink coffee and chat in their crew room, two of them walk out onto the tarmac. In the cockpit of a Provost Howard is being briefed before flying solo. As the instructor drives to the control tower in a Landrover, we see details in the cockpit as Howard prepares for his flight. Air to Air we see the plane take off and fly, intercut between Howard and the control tower giving instructions. The plain lands successfully.Back on the tarmac Howard is criticised by his instructor, undaunted Howard joins his pal Ellis and others and they move off together. A Valetta aircraft is in flight, inside a Navigation instructor walks down the gangway talking to cadets as they check their maps. Shots of the Valetta in flight. Shot looking up at the clock tower pan down to entrance of the main Cranwell building as cadets enter. Inside the cadets walk to their various activities. A French lesson, radio or radar equipment demonstration, a group of cadets around a wind tunnel demonstration showing aerofoils under pressure. Officers and cadets attend a grand diner in full military evening dress, a military band plays music. A batman brings Howard his uniform, Ellis joins him, they are now senior cadets and they plan a flight on a map. Provosts in the air flying over countryside and buildings. Air to air shots VG pictures as they fly in formation and do aerobatics. In a large classroom the cadets ask military questions to a British Major and a U.S.A.A.A.F. Major, places are pointed to on wall maps. Air to Air Valetta in flight, navigator speaks to pilot, he looks at his watch and the pilot gives a thumbs up. All is well and the plane flies on.

UK Military SERIOUS MESSAGE to Sukhoi SU-35 AircraftUK Military SERIOUS MESSAGE to Sukhoi SU-35 Aircraft
A great video showing the Royal air force is ready to confront the Sukhoi Su 35 if called upon. The Royal Air Force (RAF) is the United Kingdom's aerial warfare force. Formed toward the end of the First World War on 1 April 1918,[3] it is the oldest independent air force in the world.[4] Following victory over the Central Powers in 1918 the RAF emerged as, at the time, the largest air force in the world.[5] Since its formation, the RAF has taken a significant role in British military history, in particular, playing a large part in the Second World War where it fought its most famous campaign, the Battle of Britain.[6] The RAF's mission is to support the objectives of the British Ministry of Defence (MoD), which are to "provide the capabilities needed: to ensure the security and defence of the United Kingdom and overseas territories, including against terrorism; to support the Government’s foreign policy objectives particularly in promoting international peace and security."[1] The RAF describe its mission statement as "... [to provide] An agile, adaptable and capable Air Force that, person for person, is second to none, and that makes a decisive air power contribution in support of the UK Defence Mission."[7] The mission statement is supported by the RAF's definition of air power, which guides its strategy. Air power is defined as: "The ability to project power from the air and space to influence the behaviour of people or the course of events."[8] Today the Royal Air Force maintains an operational fleet of various types of aircraft,[9] described by the RAF as being "leading-edge" in terms of technology.[10] This largely consists of fixed-wing aircraft, including: fighter and strike aircraft, airborne early warning and control aircraft, ISTAR and SIGINT aircraft, aerial refueling aircraft and strategic and tactical transport aircraft. The majority of the RAF's rotary-wing aircraft form part of the tri-service Joint Helicopter Command in support of ground forces. Most of the RAF's aircraft and personnel are based in the UK, with many others serving on operations (principally Afghanistan) or at long-established overseas bases (Ascension Island, Cyprus, Gibraltar, and the Falkland Islands). Although the RAF is the principal British air power arm, the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm and the British Army's Army Air Corps also deliver air power which is integrated into the maritime, littoral and land environments. History[edit] Main article: History of the Royal Air Force Origins[edit] While the British were not the first to make use of heavier-than-air military aircraft, the RAF is the world's oldest independent air force: that is, the first air force to become independent of army or navy control.[4] It was founded on 1 April 1918, with headquarters located in the former Hotel Cecil, during the First World War, by the amalgamation of the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) and the Royal Naval Air Service (RNAS). At that time it was the largest air force in the world. After the war, the service was drastically cut and its inter-war years were relatively quiet, with the RAF taking responsibility for the control of Iraq and executing a number of minor actions in other parts of the British Empire. The RAF's naval aviation branch, the Fleet Air Arm, was founded in 1924 but handed over to Admiralty control on 24 May 1939. The RAF developed the doctrine of strategic bombing which led to the construction of long-range bombers and became its main bombing strategy in the Second World War.[11] Second World War[edit] A later version of the Spitfires which played a major part in the Battle of Britain. Further information: Air warfare of World War II The RAF underwent rapid expansion prior to and during the Second World War. Under the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan of December 1939, the air forces of British Commonwealth countries trained and formed "Article XV squadrons" for service with RAF formations. Many individual personnel from these countries, and exiles from occupied Europe, also served with RAF squadrons. By the end of the war the Royal Canadian Air Force had contributed more than 30 squadrons to serve in RAF formations, similarly, approximately a quarter of Bomber Command's personnel were Canadian.[12] Additionally, the Royal Australian Air Force represented around nine percent of all RAF personnel who served in the European and Mediterranean theaters.[13] The Avro Lancaster heavy bomber was extensively used during the strategic bombing of Germany. In the Battle of Britain in 1940, the RAF (supplemented by 2 Fleet Air Arm Squadrons, Polish, Czecho-Slovak and other multinational pilots and ground personnel) defended the skies over Britain against the numerically superior German Luftwaffe. In what is perhaps the most prolonged and complicated air campaign in history, the Battle of Britain contributed significantly to the delay and subsequent indefinite postponement of Hitler's plans for an -

US Air Force MOST FEARED F 15 Take Off from Royal Air Force base
Great video of US Air Force F-15 aircraft taking off from Royal air force base. The United States Air Force (USAF) is the aerial warfare service branch of the United States Armed Forces. ARLINGTON, Va. - The Air National Guard will unveil an upgrade to the radar system for its F-15 Eagle fighter aircraft today, which will give it greater capabilities while reducing maintenance costs. The new radar system—the APG-63(v)3 Active Electronically Scanned Array—replaces the older mechanically controlled devices currently in the aircraft. "When the F-15 was first designed and made, the radar in it was world class, the best at the time, but its 1970s technology," said Air Force Maj. Dave Slaydon, chief of F-15 requirements for the Air National Guard. "It's a mechanically scanned array, meaning i... -

Royal Air Force BAE Systems Hawk T2 ZK021 | EMERGENCY LANDING at Cardiff Airport with ATC
*Watch in 1080p!* Hello all, today's video is from my trip to Cardiff last month where I was lucky to witness an emergency landing. The aircraft involved was an RAF Hawk T2 which had a birdstrike while flying low level in Wales. Date filmed: 25th June 2015. The aircraft sent out a PAN emergency and was given priority to land at Cardiff Airport as 'PAN Virus 1' which meant that numerous aircraft had delays in the hold. The aircraft involved was flying a sortie from RAF Valley with another Hawk which landed shortly after. The local fire and police departments were also in attendance to make sure that nothing went wrong. The aircraft got down safely but remained grounded for a number of days, while its sister ship was able to depart back to Valley after breakfast in the airport cafe (where I... -

ARLINGTON, Va. - The Air National Guard will unveil an upgrade to the radar system for its F-15 Eagle fighter aircraft today, which will give it greater capabilities while reducing maintenance costs.
The new radar system—the APG-63(v)3 Active Electronically Scanned Array—replaces the older mechanically controlled devices currently in the aircraft.
"When the F-15 was first designed and made, the radar in it was world class, the best at the time, but its 1970s technology," said Air Force Maj. Dave Slaydon, chief of F-15 requirements for the Air National Guard. "It's a mechanically scanned array, meaning it's a radar dish like you would see in the movies and it has hydraulics that move it back and forth to point around the sky to find the bad guys."
The new radar system does away with the hydraulics system completely.
"With this new technology it is a flat panel with a bunch of little panels on it and you can electronically steer the radar beam around," said Slaydon.
A radar controlled electronically, rather than mechanically, has a number of benefits, including less maintenance on the equipment.
"Since there are no moving parts to it, it hardly ever breaks," said Slaydon. "There aren't any hydraulics or mechanical parts banging around. That gives it a really, really high reliability rate which is good for us as it means the jet is [available] more often to fly as there are less maintenance actions required on it."
But, said Slaydon, the big plus is the improved capabilities of the radar unit.
"The performance part is where we really make the money," said Slaydon. "With that technology of the radar being electronically controlled, the beam can be pointed all around the sky in fractions of a second."
That translates to a greater situational awareness, said Slaydon.
"What that allows you to do is to track multiple targets and be able to engage multiple targets," he said. "It also gives you a greater detection range, so you can find the bad guys at a further range and it has increased identification capabilities as well where the radar can scan the radar signature and tell if it's a Boeing 747 or is it a fighter-type of jet."
Development of the improved F-15 radar system has been ongoing for about the past five years, said Slaydon, adding that it has been an Air National Guard-led program from the beginning.
"We have partnered with the active duty Air Force, and they have taken a huge role in the program," he said. "But it was conceived by, developed by and we're fielding it first in the Air National Guard so that's a big feather in our cap."
The radar will be fielded by the 125th Fighter Wing, based in Jacksonville, Fla., said Slaydon. Units in the Oregon and Louisiana Air National Guard will be the next to get the radar sets.
Fielding in Florida and Oregon is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2010, and Louisiana is scheduled to receive the upgrades in the early part of 2011.
"We're spreading out the initial beddown to put the capability where it's needed geographically," Slaydon said. "After that initial issue, we'll then go in a fill in with a few more as needed."
He added that future sites may include Massachusetts and Montana.
Although the new radar units are specifically for the F-15, the technology translates to other fighter platforms as well, said Slaydon, adding that it has been incorporated into the F-22 Raptor.
The fielding of the equipment speaks to the capabilities of the Air Guard. "It just shows that the Air National Guard is committed to air dominance," said Slaydon. "That applies to both our homeland defense mission as well as our worldwide capabilities that we bring air dominance to the combatant commanders worldwide. That includes modernizing our jets to bring the capabilities to what the mission requires."

US Air Force B2 stealth bombers arrive at UK royal air force base to send message to Russian President Vladimir Putin. The Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit, also known as the Stealth Bomber.
ROYAL AIR FORCE FAIRFORD, England -- For more than 50 years the B-52H Stratofortress has served as the backbone of the United States' strategic bomber force. The B-52 is capable of dropping or launching the widest array of weapons in the U.S. inventory, including gravity bombs, cluster bombs, precision guided missiles and joint direct attack munitions to complete its conventional mission.
Many might associate the B-52 with its nuclear role, but today the aircraft and its crews are forward deployed to Royal Air Force Fairford, England, to demonstrate the conventional capabilities the airframe offers.
"Associating the B-52 mission with a conventional mission and dropping conventional bombs is important, because it's a capability that we have and are proficient in and train to all the time," said Capt. Jeffery Shaw, 5th Bomb Wing weapons officer.
While at RAF Fairford, the 23rd Expeditionary Bomb Squadron used three B-52Hs to drop inert munitions into a target zone in Latvia and off the coast of Sweden, participate in simulated air strikes, provide naval support to vessels from 15 countries, and coordinate with Latvian, Polish and Lithuanian Joint Terminal Attack Controllers.
In a conventional conflict, the B-52 can perform strategic attack, air interdiction, offensive counter-air, close air support and maritime operations.
"This is a pretty phenomenal opportunity because we're integrating the B-52 on an international scale with NATO and Baltic nations," Shaw said. "We have multiple fighter aircraft across this whole area that we're doing close air support work with--Latvian, Lithuanian and Polish JTACs...it's definitely a chance for the B-52 to showcase its capability."
While participating in various training scenarios during BALTOPS 15 and Saber Strike 15, air and ground crew members demonstrate the sustained capabilities of the B-52 and its ability to provide a credible, flexible and sustained bomber presence anywhere and anytime.
Shaw noted it's important the B-52s are participating in conventional missions in the Baltics, while operating out of a forward deployed location, projecting an expeditionary airpower. This means crew members are able to reinforce their ability to operate from a forward deployed location and employ the B-52 in a realistic close air support scenario.
Bomber operations provide a visible signal that highlights the United States' ability to deter strategic attacks, and the flexibility and range of the aircraft were seen during Operation Desert Storm, the Gulf War, Operation Allied Force and Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom.
As seen in previous operations, the B-52 provides the ability to respond to any potential crisis, future crisis or challenge and their operations shall continue well into 2040.
The aircraft and support personnel deployed from Minot Air Force Base, North Dakota, along with men and women from Whiteman AFB, Missouri; F. E. Warren AFB, Wyoming; Langley AFB, Virginia; Malmstrom AFB, Montana; Navy Munitions Command Unit Charleston, and Barksdale AFB, Louisiana, to support a planned B-2 and B-52 bomber deployment to England.

Reel one.
Three Provost aircraft fly low over Cranwell college. An R.A.F. bus stops outside the college gates, inside the bus young cadets in civilian cloths look through the window at the planes and the college. We identify Howard and Ellis as they watch the Provosts peel off in different directions. In the college entrance hall Howard and Ellis take the Oath of Allegiance. On the walls are portraits of famous airmen, Lord Trenchard and Douglas Bader. In stores Howard and Ellis receive their flying equipment and helmet and Howard is being measured for his uniform. In a classroom the cadets are being lectured on the principle of flight. In front of the main building Senior Cadet Officer takes the salute as the R.A.F. flag is lowered.
A Sergeant shouts at Howard as a squad of cadets march up and down. Interior, an instructor lectures around a jet engine, we see the engine turning. On a runway cadets cluster around a jet aircraft as an instructor points out features. Air to air a Chipmonk is in flight, in the cockpit Ellis receives instruction. In small cubicles Ellis and other cadets are being instructed in navigation, they talk into mouth pieces and plot their routes on charts. Howard and Ellis are seen studying in their rooms and the library. Ellis receives individual tuition from a tutor in front of a cosy fire.
The cadets are seen cross-country running, sailing dinghies on a river, playing football and rugby. In Scotland the cadets are erecting tents by a lake, an officer looks on as they cook and adjust their tents. In the air, Howard sitting next to his instructor, is flying a jet Provost.
On the tarmac Provosts are lined up. In the Squadron Operations room a senior instructor briefs the cadets with words like "echelon starboard and run in". The cadets drink coffee and chat in their crew room, two of them walk out onto the tarmac. In the cockpit of a Provost Howard is being briefed before flying solo. As the instructor drives to the control tower in a Landrover, we see details in the cockpit as Howard prepares for his flight. Air to Air we see the plane take off and fly, intercut between Howard and the control tower giving instructions. The plain lands successfully.Back on the tarmac Howard is criticised by his instructor, undaunted Howard joins his pal Ellis and others and they move off together.
A Valetta aircraft is in flight, inside a Navigation instructor walks down the gangway talking to cadets as they check their maps. Shots of the Valetta in flight. Shot looking up at the clock tower pan down to entrance of the main Cranwell building as cadets enter. Inside the cadets walk to their various activities. A French lesson, radio or radar equipment demonstration, a group of cadets around a wind tunnel demonstration showing aerofoils under pressure.
Officers and cadets attend a grand diner in full military evening dress, a military band plays music. A batman brings Howard his uniform, Ellis joins him, they are now senior cadets and they plan a flight on a map. Provosts in the air flying over countryside and buildings. Air to air shots VG pictures as they fly in formation and do aerobatics.
In a large classroom the cadets ask military questions to a British Major and a U.S.A.A.A.F. Major, places are pointed to on wall maps.
Air to Air Valetta in flight, navigator speaks to pilot, he looks at his watch and the pilot gives a thumbs up. All is well and the plane flies on.

As the instructor drives to the control tower in a Landrover, we see details in the cockpit as Howard prepares for his flight. Air to Air we see the plane take off and fly, intercut between Howard and the control tower giving instructions. The plain lands successfully.Back on the tarmac Howard is criticised by his instructor, undaunted Howard joins his pal Ellis and others and they move off together.
A Valetta aircraft is in flight, inside a Navigation instructor walks down the gangway talking to cadets as they check their maps. Shots of the Valetta in flight. Shot looking up at the clock tower pan down to entrance of the main Cranwell building as cadets enter. Inside the cadets walk to their various activities. A French lesson, radio or radar equipment demonstration, a group of cadets around a wind tunnel demonstration showing aerofoils under pressure.
Officers and cadets attend a grand diner in full military evening dress, a military band plays music. A batman brings Howard his uniform, Ellis joins him, they are now senior cadets and they plan a flight on a map. Provosts in the air flying over countryside and buildings. Air to air shots VG pictures as they fly in formation and do aerobatics.
In a large classroom the cadets ask military questions to a British Major and a U.S.A.A.A.F. Major, places are pointed to on wall maps.
Air to Air Valetta in flight, navigator speaks to pilot, he looks at his watch and the pilot gives a thumbs up. All is well and the plane flies on.
Continues.

A great video showing the Royal air force is ready to confront the Sukhoi Su 35 if called upon. The Royal Air Force (RAF) is the United Kingdom's aerial warfare force. Formed toward the end of the First World War on 1 April 1918,[3] it is the oldest independent air force in the world.[4] Following victory over the Central Powers in 1918 the RAF emerged as, at the time, the largest air force in the world.[5] Since its formation, the RAF has taken a significant role in British military history, in particular, playing a large part in the Second World War where it fought its most famous campaign, the Battle of Britain.[6]
The RAF's mission is to support the objectives of the British Ministry of Defence (MoD), which are to "provide the capabilities needed: to ensure the security and defence of the United Kingdom and overseas territories, including against terrorism; to support the Government’s foreign policy objectives particularly in promoting international peace and security."[1] The RAF describe its mission statement as "... [to provide] An agile, adaptable and capable Air Force that, person for person, is second to none, and that makes a decisive air power contribution in support of the UK Defence Mission."[7] The mission statement is supported by the RAF's definition of air power, which guides its strategy. Air power is defined as: "The ability to project power from the air and space to influence the behaviour of people or the course of events."[8]
Today the Royal Air Force maintains an operational fleet of various types of aircraft,[9] described by the RAF as being "leading-edge" in terms of technology.[10] This largely consists of fixed-wing aircraft, including: fighter and strike aircraft, airborne early warning and control aircraft, ISTAR and SIGINT aircraft, aerial refueling aircraft and strategic and tactical transport aircraft. The majority of the RAF's rotary-wing aircraft form part of the tri-service Joint Helicopter Command in support of ground forces. Most of the RAF's aircraft and personnel are based in the UK, with many others serving on operations (principally Afghanistan) or at long-established overseas bases (Ascension Island, Cyprus, Gibraltar, and the Falkland Islands). Although the RAF is the principal British air power arm, the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm and the British Army's Army Air Corps also deliver air power which is integrated into the maritime, littoral and land environments.
History[edit]
Main article: History of the Royal Air Force
Origins[edit]
While the British were not the first to make use of heavier-than-air military aircraft, the RAF is the world's oldest independent air force: that is, the first air force to become independent of army or navy control.[4] It was founded on 1 April 1918, with headquarters located in the former Hotel Cecil, during the First World War, by the amalgamation of the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) and the Royal Naval Air Service (RNAS). At that time it was the largest air force in the world. After the war, the service was drastically cut and its inter-war years were relatively quiet, with the RAF taking responsibility for the control of Iraq and executing a number of minor actions in other parts of the British Empire. The RAF's naval aviation branch, the Fleet Air Arm, was founded in 1924 but handed over to Admiralty control on 24 May 1939.
The RAF developed the doctrine of strategic bombing which led to the construction of long-range bombers and became its main bombing strategy in the Second World War.[11]
Second World War[edit]
A later version of the Spitfires which played a major part in the Battle of Britain.
Further information: Air warfare of World War II
The RAF underwent rapid expansion prior to and during the Second World War. Under the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan of December 1939, the air forces of British Commonwealth countries trained and formed "Article XV squadrons" for service with RAF formations. Many individual personnel from these countries, and exiles from occupied Europe, also served with RAF squadrons. By the end of the war the Royal Canadian Air Force had contributed more than 30 squadrons to serve in RAF formations, similarly, approximately a quarter of Bomber Command's personnel were Canadian.[12] Additionally, the Royal Australian Air Force represented around nine percent of all RAF personnel who served in the European and Mediterranean theaters.[13]
The Avro Lancaster heavy bomber was extensively used during the strategic bombing of Germany.
In the Battle of Britain in 1940, the RAF (supplemented by 2 Fleet Air Arm Squadrons, Polish, Czecho-Slovak and other multinational pilots and ground personnel) defended the skies over Britain against the numerically superior German Luftwaffe. In what is perhaps the most prolonged and complicated air campaign in history, the Battle of Britain contributed significantly to the delay and subsequent indefinite postponement of Hitler's plans for an

*Watch in 1080p!*
Hello all, today's video is from my trip to Cardiff last month where I was lucky to witness an emergency landing. The aircraft involved was an RAF Hawk T2 which had a birdstrike while flying low level in Wales. Date filmed: 25th June 2015. The aircraft sent out a PAN emergency and was given priority to land at Cardiff Airport as 'PAN Virus 1' which meant that numerous aircraft had delays in the hold. The aircraft involved was flying a sortie from RAF Valley with another Hawk which landed shortly after. The local fire and police departments were also in attendance to make sure that nothing went wrong. The aircraft got down safely but remained grounded for a number of days, while its sister ship was able to depart back to Valley after breakfast in the airport cafe (where I was filming)! As always, I have included the ATC communications to make the video more interesting and give people an understanding of how smoothly emergencies are handled at international airports. I timed my arrival quite well because as soon as I sat down the aircraft were on final meaning that I had no time to set up my tripod which is why the footage is a little bit bumpy. I have plenty more footage from this trip to the local which will be uploaded in due course including a British Airways Boeing 747! I hope you enjoyed and thanks for watching!

Typhoon provides the RAF with a multi-role combat aircraft, capable of being deployed in the full spectrum of air operations, from air policing, to peace support, through to high intensity conflict. It is currently employed on permanent ops in the Falkland Islands, UK QRA (Quick Reaction Alert) North and UK QRA South.
A total of 53 Tranche 1 aircraft were delivered, with Tranche 2 contract provisioning for 91 aircraft. 24 of these were diverted to fulfill the RSAF export campaign, leaving 67 Tranche 2 aircraft due for delivery to the RAF. The Tranche 3 contract has been signed and will deliver 40 aircraft. With the Tranche 1 aircraft fleet due to retire over the period 2015-18, this will leave 107 Typhoon aircraft in RAF service until 2030.
Future weapons integration will include Meteor air-to-air missile, Paveway IV, Storm Shadow, Brimstone and Small Diameter Bomb. Additionally, it is intended to upgrade the radar to an Active Electronically Scanned Array.

A total of 53 Tranche 1 aircraft were delivered, with Tranche 2 contract provisioning for 91 aircraft. 24 of these were diverted to fulfill the RSAF export campaign, leaving 67 Tranche 2 aircraft due for delivery to the RAF. The Tranche 3 contract has been signed and will deliver 40 aircraft. With the Tranche 1 aircraft fleet due to retire over the period 2015-18, this will leave 107 Typhoon aircraft in RAF service until 2030.
Future weapons integration will include Meteor air-to-air missile, Paveway IV, Storm Shadow, Brimstone and Small Diameter Bomb. Additionally, it is intended to upgrade the radar to an Active Electronically Scanned Array.

No. 1 Squadron RAF Leuchars
No. 6 Squadron RAF Leuchars
No. 3 Squadron RAF Coningsby
No. 11 Squadron RAF Coningsby
No. 17 Squadron RAF Coningsby
