A U.S. Air Force F-22 Raptor aircraft assigned to the 3rd Wing takes off during an Alaskan NORAD Region practice alert response at U.S. Coast Guard Air Station Kodiak, Alaska, May 13, 2026. The 3rd Wing maintains a variety of response options throughout the Alaskan Theater of Operations to detect, deter and defeat potential threats to the U.S. and its allies.
