Payload Showdown: 378th AEW hosts CENTCOM’s largest load comp

From left, U.S. Air Force Airman 1st Class Adrion Hurd, 55th Expeditionary Fighter Generation Squadron weapons load crew member, and Staff Sgt. Oscar Fernández, 55th EFGS weapons load crew chief, guide an AIM-120 into place during a load competition within the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility, July 20, 2025. All competing crews completed the configuration in less than half the time allotted by the Air Force Instruction, demonstrating the job expertise and skill of weapons crews members and their ability to rapidly generate various configurations in a moment’s notice within a dynamic threat environment.
