Hello Everyone! Welcome Back To The ZEBTUZ Channel;

U.S. Air Force Airmen and Philippine Air Force personnel conducted bilateral fighter training operations at Clark, Basa, and Mactan Air Bases and other areas within the Philippines in support of exercise Cope Thunder 23. Cope Thunder was a bilateral exercise that aimed to improve the interoperability of the U.S. and the Philippines through fighter training.

More than 500 U.S. Air Force Airmen participated in the exercise with approximately 15 aircraft from a variety of different units including F-22 Raptors from the 199th Fighter Squadron, Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii, and A-10 Warthogs from the 354th Fighter Squadron, Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona. Flying operations during CT 23 gave both allied partners the opportunity to train side by side, increasing familiarity with each others’ tactics and enhancing interoperability and lethality, all in the support of a free and open Indo-Pacific region.
