F-15 Eagles from the 67th Fighter Squadron perform an elephant walk during a no-notice readiness exercise April 12, 2017, at Kadena Air Base, Japan. The exercise demonstrated Team Kadena's ability to rapidly respond to and generate air combat power against a simulated attack on Okinawa. Operating from the largest U.S. installation in the Asia-Pacific region, the 18th Wing defends U.S. and Japanese mutual interests by providing a forward power projection platform with fully integrated, deployable, combat power.
