Bringing precision to the fight
AL ASAD AIR BASE, Iraq -- Tech. Sgt. Frank Williams, 438th Air Expeditionary Group weapons loader, checks munitions on an A-10C Thunderbolt II here, pulling arming pins so pilots can employ weapons. The 438th AEG is the first unit to fly newly upgraded A-10C Thunderbolt IIs in combat. The improved aircraft’s precision engagement abilities allow it to more accurately strike enemy targets, reducing dangers to coalition forces and non-combatants. Sergeant Williams is deployed from the 175th Wing, Maryland Air National Guard, Baltimore. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. D. Clare)
