2/20/2013 - JOINT BASE PEARL HARBOR-HICKAM, Hawaii -- The
U.S. military will be represented at Australian International Airshow
International Air and Aviation Trade show at Avalon Airport, Victoria,
Australia, from February 26 through March 3.
A cross-section of U.S. military aircraft and equipment are scheduled to
be present through static displays and aerial demonstrations including
the USAF F-22 Raptor, C-17 Globemaster III, F-16 Fighting Falcon, B-52
Stratofortress, and KC-135 Stratotanker, and a U.S. Marine CV-22.
Through participation in airshows and other regional events, the United
States is able to demonstrate its commitment to the stability and
security of the Asia-Pacific region, promote the standardization and
interoperability of equipment, and display capabilities critical to the
success of military operations. It also serves to strengthen
long-standing mil-to-mil relations between the U.S. and Australia.
Gen. Herbert J. "Hawk" Carlisle, Commander, Pacific Air Forces, will
attend and speak at the aerospace symposium held in conjunction with
this event.
