A-10 and f-16 Elephant walk

A-10 Thunderbolt II and F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter aircraft perform an ‘Elephant Walk’ on the runway this week during Exercise Beverly Herd 16-01 at Osan Air Base, Republic of Korea. The Elephant Walk was a demonstration of U.S. Air Force capabilities and strength and showcases the wing’s ability to generate combat airpower in an expedient manner in order to respond to simulated contingency operations. The A-10 Thunderbolt II aircraft are the 25th Fighter Squadron “Draggins” and the F-16 Fighting Falcon aircraft are the 36th Fighter Squadron “Friends” from the 51st Fighter Wing, Osan AB, ROK; the additional F-16 aircraft are the 179th Fighter Squadron “Bulldogs” from the 148th Fighter Wing out of Duluth Air National Guard Base, Minnesota.
