Developmental and Operational Test Integrate on B-52 flight; Bringing the Future Faster

Maj. Christin Hart, 419th Flight Test Squadron B-52 flight commander, inspects the B-52 Stratofortress before takeoff at Barksdale Air Force Base, La., Feb. 28, 2018. Upgraded equipment and software for all Air Force platforms, including the B-52, go through two phases of testing: developmental and then operational. This flight combines both testing phases into one, saving the Air Force time and money while delivering warfighting capability faster to operational units.
