Air Force and Space Force Tech Connect bridges student aerospace organization with AFRL mentorship

This image shows a 3-D rendering of Penn Jet Propulsion's original CAD model. Making a full model of the engine was one of the team's early priorities as a club to attract new members so they could build a team of engineers. This image shows a cross section view of the engine, showing the internal components like the combustor and stator. The group used this image to help teach new members, called cadets, about the internal workings and thermodynamics of the engine. (Courtesy photo)

Quarterly AFTC-AFRL Summit aims to get warfighters “ready to go fast”

A Canadian coalition tactical air control party member operates within a simultaneously live, virtual, and constructive environment allowing warfighters to prepare to wage war, and then practice doing so in a realistic simulation so that they can learn how to be combat effective during Coalition VIRTUAL FLAG 22-1 at Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico, Oct. 24 - Nov. 5, 2021. CVF exercises led by the United States Air Force focus on coalition major combat operations in a realistic theater against a near-peer threat in a dynamic training environment. CVFs are designed to build and maintain joint and coalition partnerships between the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada by focusing on planning, executing, and debriefing a multitude of mission sets in air, space, surface, and cyber domains.
