Operation Chimichanga
On 4 April 2012, the US Air Force conducted a major exercise intended to validate long-range capabilities of various aircraft, notably the B-1 bomber and F-22 fighter. Dubbed Operation Chimichanga, KC-135 Stratotankers from the 168th Air Refueling Wing at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska; F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter aggressor aircraft from Misawa Air Base, Japan; B-1 bombers from Ellsworth Air Force Base, South Dakota; and the F-22 Raptor fighter and E-3 Sentry Airborne Warning and Control System aircraft assigned to the 3rd Wing participated in the operation.
Planning for the exercise began in December 2011, with aircrews and a myriad of support agencies assigned to the 28th Bomb Wing began working closely with the 608th Air Operations Center at Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana, to develop a long range strike exercise aimed at improving processes noted during 28th Bomb Wing's participation in Operation Odyssey Dawn over Libya in 2011. The final exercise incorporated multiple live fly participants and command and control elements. The exercise started with a simulated warning order, continued through course of action development, execution order, air tasking order, live fly, and finished with battle damage assessment and an after action report.
Personnel operated F-22s, KC-135s and F-16s out of Eielson Air Force Base, while E-3s and additional F-16s supported the exercise from Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson. The B-1s participating in the long-range strike exercise flew a 10-hour round trip mission from Ellsworth Air Force Base to strike their targets just east of Eielson. This exercise allowed the various aircraft to work together in a simulated strike environment to practice interoperability while simultaneously traveling long distances and receiving air refueling support. The exercise was the first time F-22 Increment 3.1 hardware and software upgrade was used in a large force employment exercise.
==================================================================
2012년에 미국이 오퍼레이션 치미창가(멕시코요리)라고 중국본토 선제기습폭격작전 시나리오를 훈련한적이 있었습니다.
참여한 기체는 다음과 같습니다.
에델슨 알래스카 공군기지
- KC-135
- F-22
- F-16
엘름도프 리차슨 알래스카 통합기지
- E-3
- F-16
엘스워쓰 사우스다코다 공군기지
- B-1 폭격기
미사와 주일미군 공군기지
- F-16 가상적기
여기서 보시면 아시겠지만, 중국본토폭격훈련에 일본배치 기체는 전혀 동원하지 않는것을 상정했습니다. 일본배치 F-16은 가상적기 역할만 했지요.
왜 이렇게 훈련을 했냐면, 중국본토폭격에 일본배치 기체를 동원하려면 일본정부의 승인을 받아야 하는 데, 일본정부가 그걸 승인해줄리가 없으니, 미본토와 앨라스카 배치기체만 동원하는 걸로 작전계획을 짰습니다.
여기 가생이에는 대만전쟁에 미군이 주일미군과 주한미군병력을 맘대로 동원해 투입할수 있는줄 아시는 분들이 많은데, 절대 그렇지 않습니다.
