U.S. Air Force B-52 takes part in joint training at RAAF Darwin

United States Air Force B-52 pilot, Major Chris Morris, stands in front of a B-52 with RAAF military working dog handler, Corporal Chris Bird and military working dog Dakota. The Royal Australian Air Force is pleased to welcome a United States Air Force (USAF) B-52 and KC-135 from Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, to RAAF Base Darwin. The USAF crew will conduct routine training in RAAF Base Darwin. On departure from Darwin the B-52 will fly via Delamere Air Weapons Range to simulate ordnance drops with RAAF and practice aerial refueling operations. This demonstrates Australia's commitment to increased cooperation with the United States. Both nations share an intent for increased U.S. Air Force training with the RAAF, however decisions on future rotations including timings are still under discussion. This is the first time a B-52 has landed at RAAF Darwin and since the United States and Australia announced enhanced aircraft cooperation as one of the two force postures initiatives, in November 2011.
