This episode explores the world of post-graduate fighter training through the lens of the Air Force Weapons School. Listeners will hear about the evolution of BFM and air superiority as technology changed from guns to first generation missiles through today’s high off-boresight weapons. This episode also introduces the limitations of physical ranges due to high speeds and long ranges of modern aircraft, sensors, and weapons. Fight’s On! is an eight-episode series about combat aviation training focusing on how the U.S. takes newly minted (warrant) officers and molds them into combat aviators able to fight and win in today’s high-tech battlespace. Told through the stories and experiences of U.S. military aviators in their own voices, Fight’s On! takes the listener on the journey of combat aviators from Initial flight training through advanced tactical training and multi-unit exercises, ultimately describing the current and near future systems and programs that will ensure American air dominance into the future. Fight's On! is a production of Authentic Media in association with BVR Productions.
