On-Target Efforts
The offensive and defensive prowess of SOF aircraft will be increased through the budget outyears by a number of gun system modernization programs. New and upgraded weapons with the possibility of more lethal and diverse ammunition
Teak Torch
The language of friendship forged through any communication barriers as Royal Thai air forces and the United States Air Force joined together for recent exchange training. About 130 members from the 353rd Special Operations Group traveled to Udon Thani Air Base, Thailand, for Exercise Teak Torch.
SOF Mobility
SOTECH’s annual special operations tactical vehicle review A great deal of activity occurred in the world of tactical vehicles over the past year or so, as U.S. military forces invested heavily in new vehicle designs and configurations. USSOCOM has been using new and old vehicles while also taking a look at other options in use by SOF around the world.
SOFSA
USSOCOM is required to maintain a dedicated, highly responsive logistics support capability for special operations forces worldwide. The cornerstone of this contractor logistics support effort is located in Lexington, Ky., with facilities and equipment located in strategic areas within the United States. A recent RFP seeks a new contract for these logistics support services.
Computerizing Civil Affairs
Information technology helps do people work of special ops. The work of the 95th Civil Affairs Brigade is largely people work, but the unit has found it useful and necessary to use information technology to document, analyze, search and map information related to its projects.
Hyperbarics
Treatment for divers may be the key to unlock the secret to addressing the war’s signature wounds. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is identified by the Office of the Surgeon General of the U.S. Army as definitive treatment of neurological abnormalities in the blast casualty.
