Training is up all over apparently. I saw more F-22's come over yesterday than I've seen total since they went operational. PAC is covered up in T-45s and T--6s.

Or, could be just practicing. I know aviation training got behind schedule for some of the services and they're trying to make up for lost time.

LOL Frank, get used to it where you live now, it's pretty much a daily right of passage in our neighborhood with the Eglin Range just to our North! The Range actually almost touches 98 near us. There is an access road to the Range just to the East of the 98 West Lounge and Package store! The area to the North of 98 there is a Archery area only zone for hunting.

The F-22s have been blasting out of JBER here in Anchorage on 'burners almost daily. I think they are responding to Putin's intrusions into our airspace though...

We know what usually comes after a big ramp up in training, just wonder where it's going to go down!

Getting ready for Martial Law
Special Forces out of Fort Bragg are training with SWAT officers in Richland County, South Carolina this week for house to house raids, another unnerving sign of the militarization of domestic law enforcement.
The late night and pre-dawn exercises, which will involve the 3rd Special Forces Group out of Fort Bragg, North Carolina, have been running since May 8 and will conclude on Friday.
Previous exercises conducted by the 3rd Special Forces Group, seen in the video above, show troops conducting house to house raids and arresting individuals at gunpoint.
Residents in Lower Richland County have been warned that they may encounter military vehicles and “hear ordinance being set off or shots being fired.”
According to Sheriff Leon Lott, “Deputies will provide simulated scenarios for the military,” while Richmond County will provide, “an ideal location for training that cannot be replicated at Fort Bragg.”
During a similar drill last year, journalists were barred from reporting on the exercise.
Concerns over drills such as this have heightened since the announcement of Jade Helm, a nationwide military exercise set to begin in July during which troops will operate undercover amongst local populations.
Footage captured by a local during a dirty bomb exercise in Richmond, California earlier this month shows National Guard troops pushing irate citizens away with batons before one of the protest group states, “I’m a sovereign citizen, I refuse to recognize you guys, I refuse to recognize you.”

The real question is, worse fight and danger to the US, Russia or ISIS!? I think ISIS is a much bigger threat and it's only a matter of time before another big attack inside the US.
No way, if that were the case they'd be doing it in another country.
Seriously though,
And Viking, if you think Isis is the threat then you agree with Russia. Personally, I would be more timid of the man with the standing army, Air Force and navy than group of Arab funded terrorist(no matter how terrifying thier youtube videos are). If wager there were more civilian casualties from airstrikes and artillery in the last year in Ukraine than Isis is responsible for.

I don't know of too many other countries that would allow our military to run around their country un-restricted. Just my 2 cents worth.

MAXman my thoughts on Russia are the international community won't let them get too far. In reality they are just taking back some of what used to be there's in the past so I think that's why the international community has let it slide. In the Middle East I'm not concerned with just ISIS, countries like Iran are a problem too. That whole area is one huge unstable mess on the brink of starting WWW III. There is also North Korea, that leader seems to be off his rocker here lately. Another thought on Russia, any skirmish with them will be fought in Eastern Europe. ISIS has openly announced they are brining the fight to inside our country and I think the whole extremist community has been working on the next 9-11 since 9-11.
Viking, often times us forces are the "world communities" response to situations. Besides the fact that a whole lot of countries in Europe get their gas and petrol from Russian pipelines, and Russia is a pretty big consumer for European auto's and electronics, etc. Europe pretty much has proven that Russia can get away with whatever they want to in Eastern Europe.
And also, hungry, half of Germany and a whole lot of other small countries used to belong to Russia. Russia funneled money, arms and soldiers into the Ukrainian speperatoon movement.
Iran is on our side against Isis. As is Russia. But I see Isis as a proxy war in some poor middle eastern countries. If an actual country with an actual military decides to tangle with us, it's going to make Iraq and Afghanistan look like a Saturday morning cartoon. Just my take,
And I want to clarify I'm not disagreeing with you: Isis doesn't make me feel good either. But Russia makes me feel worse.

That appears to be a captured Russian-built SA-6 surface to air missile launcher. They are used for training US aircrews to identify their specific radar launch signature. There are several on AF property on Santa Rosa Island and a few on a range in south Walton. I have seen them myself and they a also readily visible on google earth if you know where to look....,
