U.S. Air Force Airmen assigned to the 53rd Wing participate in Black Flag and Gray Flag at Naval Base Ventura County Point Mugu, California, Sept. 10–25, 2026. The large-force test events bring joint and allied partners together to evaluate the integration and interoperability of combat capabilities in an operationally relevant environment. Through interviews with test leaders and footage of flight-line operations, “Ready Together” explores how operational testing helps teams understand what works, identify integration challenges and inform improvements that support warfighter readiness.
