Working with a liaison officer from the 116th Air Control Wing (ACW), Georgia Air National Guard, deployed to the exercise headquarters in Michigan, aircrews flying out of Robins Air Force Base from the 461st ACW and the Army JSTARS provided real-time tracking information to air and ground forces helping them to find and identify enemy forces played by exercise participants.
