Air Force Key Talking Points
June 2008 // Volume 3, Edition 6
A monthly publication to arm Airmen with information
to more effectively tell the AF story
Communicators – be sure to personalize and localize these talking points as you speak to your audiences about the
Air Force. Tie your message to big Air Force themes, but make it personal to you and relevant to your local audience
AIR FORCE MISSION
The mission of the United States Air Force is to deliver sovereign options for the defense of the
United States of America and its global interests – to fly and fight in Air, Space and Cyberspace
MAXIMIZING UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS CAPABILITIES
To win today’s fight, the Air Force is dramatically adapting its organization, training and equipment to the unmanned
Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance force
We continue to increase equipment, training and personnel levels and have significantly increased the number of UAS
operators and combat air patrols
Airmen beat the timeline to provide 21 MQ-1 Predator close air patrols (CAPs) to CENTCOM in 2010 by two years and
with greater numbers – today we have 24 CAPs over Iraq and Afghanistan ... and we’ll have 25 CAPs by July
The Air Force’s Remote Split Operations (RSO) concept is an effective and efficient approach that maximizes the combat
capability of UAS
RSO consists of launching UAS via line-of-sight ops in theater, and controlling the aircraft remotely from CONUS
RSO has significant advantages to the joint force commander – it delivers capability while minimizing vulnerability
We must maximize UAS use throughout a theater wherever they are needed – best accomplished by centralized control
and decentralized execution to meet the immediate needs of the joint forces requiring them
THE AIR FORCE SUPPORTS JOINT UAS DOCTRINE BY DEVELOPING AND IMPROVING UAS TECHNOLOGIES
AND EMPLOYMENT PROCEDURES
IMPLEMENTING THE STRATEGY: OUR AIR FORCE PRIORITIES
• Our three overarching priorities serve as the organizing principles for all of our efforts:
1. WIN TODAY’S FIGHT
THE 21ST CENTURY
AIR FORCE
DELIVERS:
GLOBAL VIGILANCE,
GLOBAL REACH,
GLOBAL POWER FOR
AMERICA
• We remain committed to fighting and winning the Global War on Terror (GWOT), sustaining
our current operations, and providing strategic defense of our nation
• Our Airmen currently fly on average over 300 sorties daily as part of Operations Iraqi
Freedom and Enduring Freedom
¾ We’ve flown more than 1,000,000 sorties since September 11th
• Since September 2001, the Air Force is the only service continuously flying Operation
Noble Eagle missions that include more than 51,000 sorties in American skies, protecting our homeland
• Airmen are deployed to more than 125 locations around the world to fight in the GWOT at any given moment. We are
fighting our enemies in their own backyard so they cannot come to ours
¾ Airmen have fulfilled 524,000 deployments
• In addition, approximately 41 percent of our Total Force Airmen – are working all over the world contributing to
winning today’s global fight and are directly fulfilling Combatant Commanders’ requirements everyday
• In 2007, Air Force explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) technicians responded to more than 8,200 explosive hazard
incidents to support Joint counter-IED efforts in the GWOT
• Airmen fill more than 65 percent of combat contracting billets in Iraq and Afghanistan
• In 2007 alone, teams searched more than a million vehicles, uncovered hundreds of weapons caches, supported
detainee operations, and conducted hundreds of joint building search and clear missions locating high terrorist targets
• In today’s changed world no one is better positioned to keep America safe than the Air Force, because the Air Force
has the vision and global vigilance, reach and power required for today’s fight
• Global Vigilance
¾ America’s Airmen currently operate 68 satellites and provide command and control infrastructure for more than 140
satellites in total
¾ Air Force satellites provide 24/7 persistent global communications and GPS signals vital to Joint success
Air Force Key Talking Points is published monthly by SAF/CM; DSN 227-7300
Further information available on the Air Force Portal – under Air Force banner, select “Strategic Communication”
• Global Reach
¾ Around the world, on average, one U.S. Air Force air mobility aircraft takes off every 90 seconds … 24/7/365
¾ On a typical day in the Global War on Terror alone, our Air Force flies more than 200 airlift sorties
¾ In less than one year's time, Airmen developed and fielded a Joint Precision Airdrop System, allowing troops in
Afghanistan to receive vital supplies with pinpoint accuracy in all types of weather to any remote location every day
¾ In Iraq, Air Force airlift delivers the equivalent of 3,500 truckloads of cargo in an average month
• Global Power
¾ MQ-9 Reapers are in the fight on strike missions every day for the joint operations in Iraq and Afghanistan
¾ Our Air Force eliminated several high-value terrorist and insurgent targets in Afghanistan,
Somalia and Iraq, decreasing insurgent capabilities
ABOVE ALL: IT
¾ The Air Force is employing small diameter bombs, a powerful new tool with fewer collateral
TAKES AIR FORCE
damage effects – bringing a new dimension in precision
VISION, TECHNOLOGY
¾ In 2007, Air Force strikes increased by 254 percent in Iraq, while in Afghanistan strikes
AND POWER TO
increased by 58 percent, resulting in America’s Airmen conducting over 2,600 strikes
2. TAKE CARE OF OUR PEOPLE
DEFEND AMERICA IN
A CHANGING WORLD
• Our Airmen are our most valuable “weapon” in fighting the GWOT and preparing for future
threats
¾ The Air Force’s “101 Critical Days of Summer” Campaign is in full swing, helping Airmen make responsible
decisions about summertime recreation activities, to stay safe during the three riskiest months of the year
• Deliberate development of our Airmen keeps the Air Force on top as America’s force of first and last resort
• Our Warrior Ethos is part of our culture
¾ Our Airman’s Creed springs from our Core Values of integrity, service before self and excellence in all we do and is a
critical component for setting the tone for who we are
• Part of taking care of Airmen and their families includes our serious commitment to high quality of life standards
• 3. PREPARE FOR TOMORROW’S CHALLENGES
• It is our duty to ensure our Airmen have the weapons and equipment necessary to provide for our Nation’s defense
BUDGET: THE AIR FORCE SUPPORTS THE PRESIDENT’S BUDGET
• We made tough, thoughtful decisions to balance our 2009 budget across limited resources considering the continuing
high operations tempo of our Airmen, rising readiness costs, and a pressing need to modernize our aging force
• Fiscal constraints challenge our ability to ensure dominant Air, Space and Cyberspace power for the 21st Century
Airmen must have the right tools that secure warfighting capabilities; therefore, we must recapitalize (replace) and
modernize our aging air and space fleets ... and the FY09 President’s Budget continues us down that road
TOP ACQUISITION PRIORITIES
• The Air Force’s top acquisition priorities begin to address our critical recapitalization and modernization needs
• Tanker: Our Number One Priority
¾ On February 29, the Air Force awarded the new tanker contract to Northrop Grumman who met or exceeded the
requirements of the Request for Proposal and who provided the best overall value to the warfighter and the
taxpayer based on the evaluation factors
¾ Boeing filed a protest with the GAO on March 11 and a decision is expected in mid June
• New Combat Search and Rescue Helicopter (CSAR-X)
¾ Purchasing the entire complement of programmed CSAR-X aircraft will relieve the high-tempo operational strain
placed on the current inventory of aging helicopters
¾ Estimated new source selection decision is for Fall of 2008
• Space Systems (Space Situational Awareness, Transformational Satellite Communications & Space Based Infrared System)
¾ Many of our satellites have outlived their designed endurance and space systems are generally less durable than
other platforms and sensors
¾ The Air Force established an Operationally Responsive Space (ORS) program to develop concepts for surge,
augmentation, and reconstitution
¾ The Air Force is committed to institutionalizing “Back-to-Basics” across the space portfolio
• F-35A Lightning II (Joint Strike Fighter)
¾ The Lightning II will field advanced combat capabilities, strengthen integration of our Total Force, and enhance
interoperability with global partners
¾ Current plans call for procurement of 1,763 F-35As, with the first squadron projected for FY 2013
¾ The Air Force’s FY09 Unfunded Requirements List includes five additional aircraft in FY09 and advance
procurement for six additional aircraft in FY10
• New Bomber
¾ The Air Force envisions a new bomber as a manned, subsonic, highly survivable, penetrating air vehicle to augment
the bomber force providing increased long range strike capability for Combatant Commanders
¾ The Air Force has a three-phased approach to developing the new bomber
ƒ First, modernize current fleet; second, leverage available science and technology to field new bomber by 2018;
third, evaluate producible, cutting-edge technology for new strike capabilities (around 2035)

Air Force Talking Points Supplement:
Winning Today’s Fight
June 2008
NUCLEAR DETERRENCE
Nuclear forces underwrite our Nation’s security – perfection is our standard
 We clearly understand the critical responsibility that comes with the nuclear deterrence mission
Leadership is the foundation on which the Air Force achieves success in every mission
 Leaders at every level must accept responsibility, take ownership, enforce standards, and demand accountability
The US nuclear strike capability and nuclear arsenal form the ultimate backstop of our nation’s strategic defense –
dissuading opponents and reassuring allies
The Air Force has undertaken dozens of initiatives to refocus on this crucial mission; we know there is more work to be done
 AF Senior Leadership is personally involved to ensure mission focus is revitalized in every corner of the nuclear
enterprise: lines of authority and responsibility; sustainment process; inspections and evaluation; weapon system testing;
security enhancements; nuclear expertise and experience
The nuclear force is always there – our Nation, our Allies, and our friends rely on us to guarantee a safe, secure, and
combat-ready force
The Air Force is fully committed to its role in the nuclear mission; our Core Values--Integrity, Service and Excellence--demand
nothing less
CONTRIBUTIONS TO GWOT
Over 28,000 Airmen are deployed to over 125 locations worldwide to fight the GWOT – we are taking the fight to the enemies’
backyard, keeping them from ours
th
We’ve flown more than 1,000,000 sorties since September 11 to include more than 51,500 Operation Noble Eagle
missions protecting our homeland
From the CENTCOM CAOC, Airmen daily command and control a fleet of hundreds of US and coalition aircraft providing
every Joint Force Commander complete air coverage across a 27-country theater
 Airmen produce and fly over 300 sorties a day over Iraq and Afghanistan, delivering precision strike, close air support,
mobility, ISR, air refueling and aero-medevac
Every US service member knows that if their aircraft is downed or if they are isolated on the battlefield, they can rely on the Air
Force’s Combat Search and Rescue forces
Air Force Aeromedical Evacuation is the Joint team’s “lifeline home” – over 51,000 patients transported out of CENTCOM
The Air Force employs the small diameter bomb, a powerful new tool delivering combat power with precision needed for COIN
America’s Airmen currently operate 68 satellites and provide command and control for more than 140 satellites in total
 Satellites are the bedrock of the Joint Force Commander’s ability to target, communicate, and navigate, as well as deliver
early missile warning capability
SHORTENING THE KILL CHAIN WITH ENHANCED ISR CAPABILITIES
Airmen beat the timeline to provide 21 MQ-1 Predator CAPs to CENTCOM in 2010 by two years and with greater numbers
– today we have 25 Combat Air Patrols (CAP) over Iraq and Afghanistan
In October 2007, Airmen fielded the first MQ-9 Reaper, with nearly twice the performance of the Predator and 6 times the
payload. The Air Force is already flying 2 CAPs daily and is accelerating Reaper acquisition to support the GWOT
The Air Force developed, fielded and put in the hands of ground force commanders over 3,000 sets of ROVER laptops
to provide them real-time video that pinpoints enemy positions
BOOTS ON THE GROUND
The Joint Force Commander continues to call for Airmen to engage in non-traditional roles requiring innovation,
resourcefulness and the use of Joint warfighting skills
 On average, over 5,000 Airmen currently fill other Services' billets in some of their stressed skill areas. An additional
2,000 Airmen are in the pipeline for ILO task training
ILO taskings include convoy operations and protection, explosive ordnance disposal, provincial reconstruction, embedded
training teams, and security forces
 In 2007, Air Force explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) technicians responded to more than 8,200 explosive hazard
incidents to support Joint counter-IED efforts in the GWOT
 In 2007 alone, Military Working Dog teams searched more than a million vehicles, uncovered hundreds of weapons
caches, supported detainee operations, and conducted hundreds of joint building search and clear missions locating high
terrorist targets
AIRLIFT
On a typical day in the Global War on Terror alone, our Air Force flies more than 200 airlift sorties
 Inter-theater assets have airlifted 2,500 MRAPs to the CENTCOM AOR expeditiously getting a safer vehicle for ground
transportation in the hands of our forces
 In Iraq, Air Force intra-theater airlift delivers the equivalent of 3,500 truckloads of cargo in an average month
In less than 10 months, Airmen developed and fielded a Joint Precision Airdrop System, allowing troops in Iraq and
Afghanistan to receive vital supplies with pinpoint accuracy in all types of weather to any remote location

Corrective Strategy:
RC-135: Above Max-Surge 61 of last 72 months; The RJ
is now in max surge. The FTU Instructor manning is
currently 77%, projected to climb to 100% by 30 Mar.
There are 950+ Airborne Linguists in the pipeline with
219 awaiting training. Current FTU training backlog of
approx 1 year expected to double in FY08 as trainee bow
wave arrives.
EC-130H: Above Max Surge for past 29 months. Add
manning: 51 unfunded OSS and Training Sq billets still
required to overcome continual instructor shortfall and
training backlog. Add funding: impending loss of TFcoded aircraft due to CLS funding shortfall (64% of
requirement) will worsen training backlog.
CCT: New facility opened Apr 08 unconstraining
pipeline; placed CCT/PJ at 3 x recruiting groups;
adjusted attrition rates at all courses increasing
accessions; 76 in training.
PJ: Dwell improved from 1:1 to 1:2, due to AETC
training (91 grads) and ACC fielding 3 more Guardian
Angel UTC’s in last CY. Program on track to grad 88 PJs

Talking Points
- BRAC implementation is more than brick & mortar -- unfunded FY08 requirements
threaten personnel movements, infrastructure, COMM/IT & furniture for new buildings
- If the 2008 Omnibus reduction is not restored, the AF will experience delays and
disruptions in construction and the movement of people and assets--we’ll be hard broke
- Realigns infrastructure to meet future defense strategy--transform Air Force over 20 yrs
- Capitalizes on joint opportunities - places AF assets for better training, future ops/support

Major Installation (Air Force Base, Air Base, Air Guard Base or Air
Reserve Base): Self-supporting center of operations for actions of importance
to AF combat, combat support, or training. Operated by an Active, ANG or
AFRC unit of wing size or larger with all land, facilities and organic support
needed to accomplish the unit mission. Must have real property
accountability through ownership of all real estate and facilities. Agreements
with foreign governments, which give the AF jurisdiction over real property,
meet this requirement. Shared use agreements (as opposed to joint use
agreements
g
where the AF owns the runway)
y) do not meet the criteria to be
major installations.
Minor Installation (Air Station, Air Guard Station or Air Reserve Station):
Facility operated by Active, ANG or AFRC unit of at least squadron size that
does not otherwise satisfy all the criteria for a major installation. Examples of
minor installations are ANG and AFRC flying operations that are located at
civilian-owned airports.
Support Site: Air Station, Air Guard Station, Air Reserve Station or facility
operated by Active, ANG, or AFRC unit that provides general support to the
Air Force mission and does not satisfy the criteria for a major or minor
installation. Examples of support sites are: Air Force-owned contractoroperated plants, ANG and AFRC installations supporting
communications/engineering units, installations in standby, and installations
with no flying operations which provide only base operations support to other
units.
Other Activities: Annexes, minimally manned/unmanned installations with
little or no real property, and leased office space. Examples are: sites that are
located on installations belonging to other Services, Maxwell/Gunter Annex,
radio relay sites,
sites radio beacon sites,
sites remote tracking sites,
sites radar sites and
NAVAID sites.
Note: By naming convention most major installations are called bases, with the exception of Creech AFB, which is a minor
installation. Definitions below are contained in AFPD 10-5. While BRAC will generate the potential lost of three major
