Two helicopters fly over a live-fire range during exercise Anakonda 2016 June 16 in Poland. The event was an opportunity for Airmen to train alongside allies and test aircraft, vehicles and other equipment in a live-fire exercise. The event served as a wrap up for Anakonda 2016, a U.S.- and Polish-led international exercise that aimed to train, exercise and integrate Poland and its allied forces by demonstrating their defense capabilities to deploy in mass numbers and sustain combat power.
