U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Jordan Smith, 621st Air Control Squadron weapons director, left, and Staff Sgt. Jeronimo Drouet Jr., 621st ACS weapons director, spar during a training exercise as part of a combatives instructor certification course at Osan Air Base, Republic of Korea, Feb. 23, 2024. Creating training scenarios that are realistic allow the trainees to respond as if it was a real world threat. The 621st ACS and 607th Air Operations Center intend to utilize the new certifications to tailor a combatives program to their operational needs and enhance their ability to support the 51st Fighter Wing’s combat lethality.
