Exercise
Release date 06.06.2019
Two Generations
"When we established the squadron, we
focused on training the aircrew members and
integrating the platform – it was important that
we learn how to fly and fight using our new
aircraft", elaborated Maj. M'. "Since then, we've
become an operational squadron participating
in warfare; now, we've come to the stage where
we begin to join forces with the other aircraft in
the IAF, thus developing new combat doctrines.
After this, we'll be able to fight as a unified
force".

The fourth- and fifth-generation aircraft are
different to each other in terms of capabilities,
systems and combat doctrines, as each
platform has a language of its own. In order to
work together, the squadrons are then required
to form a mutual language. "Learning to work
together was the exercise's main goal", said
Maj. A', Deputy Commander of the 133rd
("Knights of the Twin Tail") Squadron, which
operates "Baz" (F-15) aircraft.

Cooperating in Every Mission
Each platform and squadron has its own unique
weapon and specialty. "Our modes of operation
are different, so we want to try and emphasize
each division's advantages in order to improve
our combat abilities", elaborated Maj. M'.
"During warfare, the force's squadrons operate
together. Until today, the 'Adir' was in a sort of
bubble of its own. Now, the force is slowly
getting to learn its features".

"After this exercise, I know that if an 'Adir' flies
in formation with me, I'm aware of its
capabilities and of the ways we can assist each
other", said Maj. A'. Maj. Y', Deputy Commander
of the 105th ("Scorpion") Squadron, which
operates the "Barak" aircraft, added: "Flying
alongside a new platform is a bit like flying with
an international air force. Whenever we're called
to operate together, we'll know how to do it in a
good, efficient manner".
