Default THE MOTHER OF ALL ELEPHANT WALKS

https://taskandpurpose.com/f35-elephant-walk-photos Personnel from the 388th and 419th Fighter Wings at Hill Air Force Base in Utah conducted a combat power exercise on Monday with an eye-popping 52 F-35A fighters — an exercise that included an impressive "elephant walk" of the assembled fifth-generation aircraft down a runway. The elephant walk and the massive number of flights that usually go along with it are all about sortie generation and displaying a level of readiness that could be leveraged during a full-blown crisis. Both wings held a similar exercise in November of 2018 with 35 aircraft, which was highly impressive, but 52 is a whole other story. Just the amount of hardware on the runway in terms of billions of dollars is staggering. BUT HEY IF MR QUATRO FEELS SAFE....THATS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT...BBY!

Watch how the smoke disappears, it's a video game. Also notice how the camera moves around, much like the free cam in SH.

Some thoughts about those two things

First Picture.

I was when watching it somehow confused.

Is it some kind of exercise if so, why are they sending so many false missile towards those anti-missile guns ? Usually they use to send one or two dummies.

Second picture.

It's peacetime, wonder if this really could be archived if a real high crisis should occur ?
