 Air Force material command airmen drive the success of the entire department of the Air Force. From research and development to test, sustainment to life cycle management, nuclear weapons management to installation and mission support. AFMC impacts every mission each step of the way. Let's take a look at one of our six centers, the Air Force Test Center and see how they support our missions. Before a warfighter flies it, drops it, maneuvers it, or even thinks about taking it to any battle space, the airmen of the Air Force Test Center have made sure it works. AFTC airmen help develop and test America's military aircraft, engines, munitions, and weapon systems in operationally relevant scenarios and environments to ensure that each platform and system is safe and mission ready before it hits the field. AFTC is our nation's air, space, and cyberspace center of excellence for flight and ground testing, ensuring our warfighter needs are met today while working toward the unexplored of the future. Nearly 19,000 AFTC airmen executing a $3 billion annual budget operate more than 200 ground test facilities and 95 aircraft across three primary installations and 35 other U.S. locations. From rocket motors, jet propulsion, and hypersonic systems to space simulation and warfighting, nuclear modernization, and emerging technologies, AFTC airmen test it all. With an innovative, can-do mindset, AFTC airmen train future test pilots, weapon system operators, space test professionals, and flight test engineers at the U.S. Air Force Test Pilot School. Test center airmen push the boundaries of what's possible by finding new ways to accelerate change and make the impossible a reality through large-scale test events and the joint simulation environment. The capabilities, expertise, and enduring principles of world-class risk management, adaptive test solutions, and a relentless focus on the warfighter define AFTC and ensure America maintains an advantage over near-peer adversaries. The Air Force Test Center, standing ready to test the future and explore the unknown.
