“We don’t do many jobs like this. It’s a great opportunity for our crew to carry some cargo for MCAS Iwakuni.”-Sergei Nenashev, radio operator of the Russian operated An-124

If Russia is the ‘bad guy’ to the United States, then why are U.S. tax dollars being paid to Russian companies to make deliveries to U.S. military personnel?
A large Antonov 124 Ruslan transport plane delivered a KC-130J simulator to the USMC at Air Station Iwakuni in Japan.
It’s part of Obama’s plan to dominate East Asia (‘Pivot to Asia’ ‘Pacific Pathways’): “This simulator delivery is part of a larger project of standing up the Operation Training Complex. When completed, it will be the largest flight simulator training complex in the Marine Corps and nearly the largest in Asia, providing training to our Navy and Marine Corps aviators.”-Tyler VandenBerg, engineer on MCAS Iwakuni

Company D, 1st Battalion, 163rd Infantry Regiment, Montana Army National Guard playing Opposing Forces (OpFor) at the Romanian Land Force Combat Training Center.
National Guard M1A2 SEP(System Enhancement Package) plays the ‘Bad Guy’ in Romania:
How to hide your M1A2 SEP in Romania.
“This is kind of neat for our unit. This is the first time the National Guard has been asked to conduct Saber Guardian as the OpFor, and for them to call on the state of Montana it means a lot to us, it makes us proud. We take a lot of pride where we are from, and to come here and provide a legitimate challenge to the BlueFor for this mission is challenging and rewarding. We are proud for our unit and proud for our state.”-First Sergeant Mathew Kemp, Delta Company, 1/163 Infantry, Montana National Guard
Montana’s 1/163 Infantry Regiment is part of the National Guard’s ‘Snake River’ 1/116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team’s ‘invasion’ of former Warsaw Pact member Romania.
Montana’s Bravo and Delta infantry companies are playing the role of Opposition Forces (OpFor, OPFOR) during Saber Guardian 2016. The U.S.-NATO wargame concludes by 07 August 2016.
‘Combatants’ are using MILES (multiple integrated laser engagement system), it’s one of the first laser tag systems, developed by the military decades ago: “The MILES gear provides a realistic force on force training opportunity. This realistic training gives our guys an idea of what they need to work on, what skills they need to develop and what they are proficient at.”-Staff Sergeant Joseph Thacker, Delta Company, 1/64th Armor Regiment, 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division
