An HC-130J Combat King II assigned to the 71st Rescue Squadron taxis for takeoff from Savannah Air National Guard Base during Exercise Ready Tiger 24-1 in Savannah, Georgia, April 10, 2024. The aircraft took off from the forward operating base during a combat search and rescue scenario. During Ready Tiger 24-1, exercise inspectors will assess the 23rd Wing's proficiency in employing decentralized command and control to fulfill air tasking orders across geographically dispersed areas amid communication challenges, integrating Agile Combat Employment principles such as integrated combat turns, forward aerial refueling points, multi-capable Airmen, and combat search and rescue capabilities.
