U.S. Army Soldiers assigned to 1-3 Attack Battalion, Task Force Vipers, conducted night gunnery tables with Joint Terminal Attack Controllers (JTACs) and U.S. Air Force Tactical Air Control Party (TACP) specialists at 21st Central Air Force Training Ground, Nadarzyce, Poland on May 10, 2026. The controllers verify target identification, confirm friend-or-foe positions and are authorized to give the "fire at will" command during air support missions. This training and coordination serves to set the standard for Apache helicopters operated by the Polish Armed Forces, which will train and certify at the base in the near future.
