Not seen, presumably hangared, were two more RF participants J-879 and 91-0360/SP.

DM A-10A's were in the revetments and weren't noted flying, so none read off.

over at KLAS McCarran Int'l were:

C-12U 84-0177 US Army
C-17A 05-5148 HH 154Wg 535/204AS (Thu 24th Jan)
C-130H 83-0488 109AW 139AS Ny ANG
KC-135R 64-14834 434ARW 72ARS Grissom
188796 CF-18A CAF

And at KHND Henderson were:

26878 UH-60 US Army
26961 UH-60 US Army

[Starman]

Adding to the above; also present by Saturday evening (26th) were 8 x Duluth F-16Cs: 91-0339, 341, 349, 405, 406, 408, 409 & 96-0081 from the 148 FW / 179 FS (you may recognise some/all of the serials!)
A second SP was not read on Sunday, 96-0080 and F-22A HH/061 had also gone missing, leaving a pesky gap in their nice parking line The SPs and the DMs were both flying (with KC-135R 80092) and of the dozen or so a/c in the revetments, the following A-10Cs of the 358FS were noted: 78-0712, 80-0150, 167, 195, 205, 207, 270, 279, 81-0946 & 82-0659 all DM bk/red (or similar).
Based A-10s noted on their own ramp were 78-0709/WA, 79-0169/OT, 171/OT, 199/no marks, 80-0176/WA, 185/WA, 204/WA, 242/OT & 82-657/DM (but on Nellis charge). GIA example 75-0301 was also visible (engineless) in a revetment.
There must have been some based Raptor movement with 9 a/c on the line Sunday, the above list minus 4120, but plus 4019, 4066 & 4188

Just a couple more, C-130H 90-1792 from the 180AS departed Sunday (supporting the MO F-15Es I guess) and Illinois KC-135R 80023 had arrived.

Over at McCarran Int'l F-18A 162885/VMFAT101/modex 222 in a striking all white colour scheme with black titles was weekend stopping and later Sunday afternoon HC-130P 65-0976/FL of the FL ANG turned up. All in all not a bad 25 hours!

***Based A-10 "657" should be 78-657, sorry!***

[wamovements]

Thanks for this great addition.
One correction DM A-10 167 is fy79 as fy80 is already stored at AMARG for five years.

DM 167 says 80 on the tail. 5 other 358FS planes here are 80-0151, 80-0235, 81-0941, 81-0970, and 81-0977.
the raptor noted as 4019 should really be WA 06-4109

Link to Swedish Air Force blogg side for Red Flag.

Nearly each day is it a agenda with lot of pictures. Not only flight pictures. A lot of information of the work on the planes on base etc.

There is a agenda for each day, plus some other stuff who can also be interesting, such as preparation for a Swedsih Air Force deployment to Djibouti.

The Red Flag exercise comes to an end this week.

See
blogg.forsvarsmakten.se/flygvapenbloggen/

[hammarö]

The Swedish Air Force ends the Red Flag 13-2, and the transport to Sweden has started. There is two planned stops, one at Bangor airbase and one at Lajes Field.

The JAS 39C Gripen are follwed by two USAF KC-10.

One C-130 transport dangerous goods.

The rest are transported by a An-124, such as containers.

The Swedish Air Force has a daily agenda presented at their homeside

blogg.forsvarsmakten.se/flygvapenbloggen/

The last one tells of the hometransport.

The next last one is about electronic warfare. A special made containers follows the flow of electronic warfare from the F-16 Wild Weasel, EA-18G Growler and the USAF infrastructure to follow and validiate the stream of information.

One other is about the ground support of the planes.

One other is about the GBU used by Gripen in the exercise. Gripens primary mission after the information on the webside must be EW and gorund support of GBU.
