 I was stationed there when Kunsan did this. I am a F-16 Crew Chief in the Air Force, but I was working Maintenance Operation Control for this exercise. It was pretty damn impressive. We actually did it twice while I was there. The first was 40+ jets from 3 Squadrons and this was the second one where the ROKAF joined us. We generated over 60 aircraft that day in less than 9 hours.Originally posted by Darren M View Post

 Are those US planes? I assume a training exercise?"When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

 SHTF training it looks like.Originally posted by CJ View PostAre those US planes? I assume a training exercise?
 
 
 On Dec. 14, 2012, Kunsan airbase, Republic of Korea, hosted the latest of a series of Elephant Walk exercise involving F-16 Fighting Falcons from the 35th and 80th Fighter Squadrons of the 8th Fighter Wing; the 4th Fighter Squadron of the 388th Expeditionary Fighter Wing at Hill Air Force Base, Utah; and the 38th Fighter Group of the ROK Air Force.
 
 During Elephant Walk exercises military aircraft (usually fully armed) taxi in close formation or in sequence right before a minimum interval takeoff and, depending on the purpose of the training event they then either take off or taxi bak to the apron.
 
 In April 2012, nearly 70 F-15E Strike Eagles took part to one of the largest Elephant Walk to date at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, N.C.
 
 Last year’s exercise at Kunsan involved about 60 U.S. F-16s and South Korea’s ROKAF KF-16s taxiing down the runway of the South Korean airbase in a collective “show of force” whose primary aim is to test squadron’s readiness to war time operations (and secondary one is probably to impress Pyongyang….).

 I'd like to see the video of 60 jets taxiing in formation and taking off like that. Bet it is bad ass as hell!
