Kranz Toledo Express Airport in Northwest Ohio, the 180th Fighter Wing is uniquely positioned for future endeavors to include joint basing initiatives. Forces engage worldwide in a war against terror, the need for a joint, integrated military force will continue to be essential for success. Northwest Ohio offers convenient access to an extensive interstate highway system, one of the most active ra

ilroad centers in the country and one of the largest seaports on the Great Lakes. The 180th Fighter Wing base and infrastructure has been designed and constructed to support the current and future fighter aircraft needed for America’s security and defense. The base is fully capable of supporting fighter aircraft operations and maintenance with little or no expansion. The base’s master plan has incorporated potential and future aircraft and missions and has made provisions to accommodate those airframes with minimal impact. In the event of future and joint missions, the base has the ability to accommodate many functions on its existing footprint, but also has ample, suitable land available for expansion.

Sentry North is a tactical-level, joint training exercise replicating today’s air battlespace with current and future weapons platforms. It was an outstanding week of realistic, real-world scenario training that gave our Airmen the valuable experience they need to carry forward. Operating out of Volk Field, we have the 125th Fighter Wing, the 33rd Fighter Wing, and Top Aces from Florida, along with the 143d Airlift Wing from Rhode Island. We also enjoyed a brief visit from the 180th Fighter Wing out of Ohio and the 115th Fighter Wing who are participating in the exercise from home station.

Can't wait for week 2! 🇺🇸
