Raptors take out aerial targets in milestone missile tests From 412th Test Wing Public Affairs and 53rd Wing Public Affairs
F-22 Raptors from the 411th Flight Test Squadron completed developmental tests of air-to-air missiles against aerial targets April 18 at the Utah Test and Training Range as part of a major capability upgrade. The Raptors launched inert AIM-9 and AIM-120 missiles against multiple BQM-167A sub-scale aerial targets, marking a significant effort along the 3.2B developmental test and evaluation upgrade timeline. “The shots at UTRR were the graduation live fire event of a two-year long 3.2B upgrade,” said Lt. Col. Randel Gordon, 411th FLTS commander. “The achievement of those shots is a huge technical accomplishment for the 412th Test Wing and 411th FLTS.” The 3.2B modernization update to the F-22 is the fighter jet’s biggest capability upgrade since reaching Initial Operating Capability in December 2005, according to the testers. Once fielded, it will add capability boosts to U.S. Air Force air superiority and further support coalition efforts overseas. Gordon praised the coordination with the 82nd Aerial Targets Squadron, which deployed from the 53rd Weapons Evaluation Group at Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida to provide the flying targets in the missile tests. The BQM-167A is a high-performance, remotely-controlled subscale aerial target used to provide a threat-representative target drone to support the Air-to-Air Weapon System Evaluation Program and other Air Force and Department of Defense air-to-air test and evaluation programs. “We deployed a group of 15 active duty members, government civilians and contractors to launch, fly and recover up to

eight BQM-167A targets over three days,” said Lt. Col. Matthew Garrison, 82nd ATRS commander. “Because we are the only Air Force unit with the aerial target mission, we take our responsibility for developmental and operational flight testers very seriously, including deployments to meet them on their local ranges.” Gordon added that live-fire missile shot events at the 411th FLTS are named after 1980s’ movie action stars as an informal way to keep track of the test milestones. Because of the importance of this past test, the event was named after “the biggest action star of the 80s.” “We saved the best for last. This was the Chuck Norris shot,” said Gordon. “It was really a technically challenging shot and a graduation shot following two years of hard work. I’m deeply proud of everyone in my squadron for making this happen.”
Hack the Air Force: Do you have what it takes? By Ed Gulick Secretary of the Air Force Public Affairs
The Air Force is inviting vetted computer security specialists from across the U.S. and select partner nations to do their best to hack some of its key public websites. The initiative is part of the Cyber Secure campaign sponsored by the Air Force’s chief information officer as a measure to further operationalize the domain and leverage talent from both within and outside the Defense Department. The event expands on the DOD ‘Hack the Pentagon’ bug bounty program by broadening the participation pool from U.S. citizens to include “white hat” hackers from the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. “This outside approach — drawing

Love is in the air: Base engineers get engaged at tower By Kenji Thuloweit 412th Test Wing Public Affairs
Edwards is known as the premier location for improving today’s military aircraft and the development of the aircraft capabilities of tomorrow, which makes U.S. air power second to none. However, when it comes to love and romance, Edwards might not be first on most people’s list. That may have changed April 19 when two members of Team Edwards decided to tie the knot high above the Edwards flightline. Amarachi Egbuziem, 772nd Test Squadron, was on a tour for new Edwards engineers. The outing takes the engineers around base to see and learn about the different facilities. Part of the tour is getting a chance to visit the Edwards control tower for a bird’s eye view of the base. That’s where Daniel Ciolkosz, 775th Test Squadron, surprised Egbuziem with a Daniel Ciolkosz, 775th Test Squadron, gets on one knee to propose to Amarachi Egbuziem, 772nd Test Squadron, at the Edwards control tower April 19.

It’s getting hot in here; time for fire extinguisher training
By Kenji Thuloweit 412th Test Wing Public Affairs
The 412th Logistics Readiness Squadron held a mass fire extinguisher training event Wednesday. About 50 members attended the annual training event for the squadron with each individual given the chance to operate a fire extinguisher to douse a controlled flame put on by the Edwards Fire Department. Various units on base are required to conduct the training annually due to the nature of their mission and equipment. However, any unit or office on base can request the training by calling the Edwards Fire Department’s Fire Prevention Office at 277-3124. Summer is right around the corner and so is the California fire season. The Edwards Fire Department Fire Prevention Office is always available to provide tips and training.

Comedian Dean Edwards brings laughs to Edwards By Kayla Fagan 412th Force Support Squadron
Comedian Dean Edwards, star of MTV2’s “Guy Code” and a “Saturday Night Live” alumnus entertained 85 members of the Edwards Air Force Base community April 27. The free comedy show was brought to Edwards AFB by Air Force Entertainment and hosted by the 412th Force Support Squadron. Also featured on the show was Air Force veteran and touring comedian Dennis Gaxiola and a special guest, local comedian Sam Ridley. The Oasis Community Center and Club Muroc opened up Stripes Lounge for the special event and audience members snacked on complimentary pretzels while enjoying table beverage service. The comedian engaged with the crowd throughout the show by stepping off stage and making his way from table to table. His spot-on impressions of various celebrities, including actor Denzel Washington, had the audience laughing
throughout the 90-minute show. After the show, audience members were able to pose for photos and get autographs. “I didn’t know Dean Edwards before the show, but decided to take advantage of a free comedy show,” said Tech. Sgt. Tina White, 31st Test and Evaluation Squadron, as she was in line to take a photo with Edwards. “I’m glad I did!” “The show was awesome!” added Staff Sgt. Kynetta Small, 31st TES, who attended the event with White and LaKresha Aodridge. “I think they should do shows like this more often!” Edwards rose to fame performing on “Russell Simmon’s Def Comedy Jam” on HBO. As one of the stars of MTV2’s “Guy Code,” Edwards helped the show become one of the network’s most successful programs. He also hosted TV One’s clip show, “Vidiots,” and serves as a correspondent on BET’s new program, “Don’t Sleep.” Edwards performed on “Comics Without Borders” and “Showtime at the Apollo.” He also

appeared on two seasons of “Saturday Night Live.” He is a Bronx, New York native who served six years in the Army Reserve and lives in New York City.

are in order to fix them, and there is no better way than to open it up to the global hacker community,” said Chris Lynch of the Defense Digital Service, an organization comprised of industry experts incorporating critical private sector experience across numerous digital challenges. The competition for technical talent in both the public and private sectors is fiercer than it has ever been according to Kim. The Air Force must compete with companies like Facebook and Google for the best and brightest, particularly in the science, technology, engineering and math fields. Keen to leverage private sector talent, the Air Force partnered with DDS to launch the Air Force Digital Service team in January 2017, affording a creative solution that turns that competition for talent into a partnership. In fact, Goldfein and Acting Secretary of the Air Force Lisa S. Disbrow visited the Defense Digital Service and Air Force Digital Service in early April to discuss a variety of initiatives the Air Force can benefit from. “It’s an exciting venture, one that will make us better, and one that focuses an incredible pool of capabilities toward keeping our Air Force sites secure,” Disbrow said. The DOD’s ‘Hack the Pentagon’ initiative was launched by the Defense Digital Service in April 2016 as the first bug bounty program employed by the federal government. More than 1,400 hackers registered to participate in the program. Nearly 200 reports were received within the first six hours of the program’s launch, and $75,000 in total bounties was paid out to participating hackers. Registration opens May 15 on the HackerOne website. The contest opens May 30 and ends June 23. Military members and government civilians are not eligible for compensation, but can participate on-duty with supervisor approval.

AFSA 1328 helping out
Air Force Sergeants Association Chapter 1328 recently sent 20 volunteers to help Habitat for Humanity in Santa Clarita, California build homes for veterans. After being greeted with breakfast by the project managers, the 20 volunteers quickly got to work digging ditches and helping build the stone fence to prevent flooding of the homes. Several members of the community came to help the volunteers and share stories of their time in the military. The day’s work completed fence lines for six separate homes. The work done by volunteers saves construction costs totaling approximately $150,000 per home making quality housing significantly more affordable for veterans in the Santa Clarita area. Habitat For Humanity looks forward to breaking ground in Palmdale in 2017.
