The U.S. Air Force Warfare Center began the second iteration of exercise Bamboo Eagle on Aug. 2, marking the beginning of an eight-day exercise spanning various locations across the western United States, designated sea and airspace in the eastern Pacific, and several virtual and constructive components. 

The exercise includes total force integration, multiple major commands and military services, as well as Royal Air Force (royalairforceuk) and Royal Australian Air Force (ausairforce) augmenting command and control efforts. Participants will conduct all-domain combat-power generation from multiple basing locations across the western U.S.

The objective of Bamboo Eagle is to improve and refine Air Force readiness through complex, large-scale military operations that demonstrate the ability to operate in a contested, dynamic environment against high end threats on short notice. 

With more than 3,000 service members from the joint forces participating and over 20 units supporting, Bamboo Eagle 24-3 will be employing more than 150 aircraft, enhancing interoperability and warfighting capabilities.

“Bamboo Eagle provides a combat representative environment,” said Maj. Gen. Christopher Niemi, commander of the USAFWC. “By honing our capabilities in dynamic and challenging environments, we strengthen our ability to deter aggression and safeguard our nation’s interests.”

Integrating training in the eastern Pacific Ocean and associated airspace provides warfighters with combat representative training by including scenarios relevant to the maritime domain.
