USAF's 8th Fighter Wing revs up readiness drive against N. Korean threats
#1

KUNSAN AIR BASE, South Korea, July 8 (Yonhap) -- F-16 fighters roared over a key U.S. air base in the southwestern city of Gunsan while ground maintenance staff checked JADAM penetrator bombs and others added to its evolving arsenal new technologies like "dronebusters."

He added, "Absolutely, I'd say we are fully ready, and that is with confidence and based upon the commitment to the alliance. The simple fact is that since 1953, we've been doing this and it's unwavering."

"North Korea has a lot of bunkers and like subterranean hideouts and headquarters," he said, noting the JADAM bombs are only a "fraction" of what the wing has. "If you want to hide underground, we have a bomb that can dig and go find you underground."
