"Validating the capabilities of other aircraft and missiles is almost impossible to duplicate unless you can actually go out there and replicate it," said Lt. Col. Martin Meyer, the director of flight test at the Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group. "With the F-16E they can program the aircraft and fly it remotely to nearly any profile that you could ask it to. If we can mimic our advisories tactics, we can validate that our missiles are effective in defeating them." (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Perry Aston)
