Hello everyone, and welcome to the April 2022 edition of Davis-Monthan AFB Desert Lightning News! Big news out of D-M this month, as Air Combat Command stood up a new organization to accelerate Information Warfare training and research. 55th Wing, Detachment 1 will conduct IW training and research events to address the growing importance of operations in the information environment and the electromagnetic spectrum, as they relate to strategic power competition. “Focusing our offensive and defensive capabilities in the digitally-enabled domain is critical to honing our lethality in strategic competition,” said Gen. Mark Kelly, commander of ACC. This is a very timely development in view of continuing cybersecurity threats worldwide, and we have coverage for you, and much more news, in this month’s issue of Desert Lightning News.
