Summary[edit]

Description
English: Central Command Area of Responsibility (Mar. 21, 2003) -- A U.S. Navy F/A-18 Hornet proceeds on its mission in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom after taking on fuel from an Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker in the skies near Iraq. The Hornet is primarily used as a fighter escort and for fleet air defense. However, it can also be used as an attack aircraft with the capability of force projection, interdiction, as well as both close and deep air support. This duel capability gives commanders immense flexibility in wartime operations. Operation Iraqi Freedom is the multi-national coalition effort to liberate the Iraqi people, eliminate Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction, and end the regime of Saddam Hussein.
