Gary,
JEFX began Aug. 28 and runs through Sept. 15.
'JEFX is a large-scale experiment designed to prepare Air Force, Army, Navy and Marine forces for the challenges of future combat. It combines live-fly forces, simulations and technology to form a realistic environment for warfighters to explore new technologies and processes'.

The live-fly portion of JEFX 00 involves 100 aircraft from the Air Force, Navy and Marines. More than 65 of these platforms and 1,600 people will operate out of Nellis. This year, the Predator unmanned aerial vehicle will be integrated over the range during strikes, and controllers will keep fighters and bombers deconflicted above the UAV. The JEFX live-fly phase begins right after a major electronic warfare exercise, Green Flag 00-4. Many assets from Green Flag will already be in place at Nellis and roll right into JEFX.

Jim
