Operational History

[edit]

Due to the nature of this plane, and it's mission, I highly doubt there will be a sufficient amount of sources to back up claims for operations in all of the mentioned countries on the AF Fact Sheet (which has been more or less brought word for word to WP). Odds are that in order to get a more specific time line of the plane's history (from the time of ABCCC forward), we'll have to contact the ACC Public Affairs Office.

Here is a small list of (more or less) confirmed operations supported by Compass Call.

Looking at the 55th Electronic Combat Group page, other operations supported by the 41st ECS and 43rd ECS are Operation Southern Watch, Operation Just Cause, Operation Desert Shield, Operation Desert Storm, Operation Uphold Democracy, Operation Deny Flight, Operation Vigilant Warrior, Operation Provide Comfort, Operation Decisive Edge, and Operation Deliberate Force. So far the only official acknowledgment of participation in these operations comes from the 55th ECG Factsheet located on the DMAFB website (http://www.dm.af.mil/library/factsheets/factsheet.asp?id=4329). Unlike OEF/OIF, I highly doubt there is going to be large amounts of information elsewhere on the internet to confirm participation.

This entry is largely edited by one individual and reads more like an advertisement. Wording such as "state-of-the-art" diminish the credibility of the author. Please consider removing bias from the text. ~~ anon —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.137.35.33 (talk) 13:19, 18 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

fuel capacity

[edit]

100 000l? With density of 0.8kg/l (Jet A1) the weight of fuel alone would be 80 000kg which is more than the "maximum takeof weight" given in the article 5.173.145.7 (talk) 09:59, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
