Diego Garcia: The Strategic U.S Military Base in Indian Ocean
Diego Garica was discovered by Portuguese explorers in the early sixteenth century and its name is believed to have come from either an early explorer's ship captain or its navigator. Under the Treaty of Paris of 1814, many of the islands in the Indian Ocean under the control of the French were ceded to Britain, including the Mauritius and the Chagos Islands. In 1965, these islands became the British Indian Ocean Territory. During the 19th Century, the islands were used as plantations, producing copra and coconut oils. Plantations on Diego Garcia were closed in 1971, following a decision to establish the U.S. Navy Support Facility based on the 1966 Exchange of Notes between Great Britain and the United States. In January 1971, U.S. Navy Seabees were transported to the island by landing sh...

Behind The Scenes At Kandahar Military Base | Warzone E1 | Our Stories
Go behind the scenes at Kandahar Military Base in Afghanistan. Subscribe to Our Stories: https://bit.ly/3lzSXhv
This extraordinary programme follows the frontline forces at a purpose-built military town on the outskirts of Kandahar in Afghanistan, where 14,000 men and women live in perhaps the world's most dangerous Warzone. The Kandahar airbase is a key facility run by the British on behalf of NATO, and the Royal Air Force has an 800-strong presence there. The RAF is the most technologically advanced of all the forces and here it is pushed to the limit. While luxuries are few and far between, keeping a base running smoothly in the middle of a desert is a challenge in itself.

What It's like at America's Northernmost Military Base in Greenland?
Thule Air Base is the United States Air Force's northernmost base, located 1,207 km (750 mile) north of the Arctic Circle and 1,524 km (947 mile) from the North Pole on the northwest coast of the island of Greenland.
Thule Air Base is the US Armed Forces' northernmost installation. Thule's arctic environment includes icebergs in North Star Bay, two islands (Saunders Island and Wolstenholme Island), a polar ice sheet, and Wolstenholme Fjord – the only place on Earth where four active glaciers join together.
Thule Air Base is home to the 21st Space Wing's global network of sensors providing missile warning, space surveillance and space control to North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and Air Force Space Command (AFSPC).

Military Airplanes: Military aircraft that have made history, and that have driven technical innovation in aviation.
For several decades now, it has been aircraft above all that have decided the outcome of military conflicts. No wonder that unimaginable sums have been invested in their development. Engineers around the world assiduously improve the speed, range, versatility, and armament of military aircraft, thus decisively advancing innovation in aviation. Ultimate Vehicles showcases the best fighters, bombers, and transport aircraft.
It is the result of the largest armaments program of all time: the F-35 Lightning II. When developing it, engineers had to satisfy numerous demands at once: a stealth aircraft with high speed and excellent avionics. In addition, it had to have vertical and short takeoff capability. How well was this mammoth task executed?
It shocked the West and taught American bomber pilots during the Korean War the meaning of fear. The Mig-15 was the first Soviet fighter jet. Today there are only 12 airworthy Mig-15s left. We take off with one of them.
Three decades later, the successful aircraft manufacturer Mikoyan-Gurevich had another stroke of genius: the Mig-29. Its maneuverability is unparalleled, and today it is considered one of the best fighter jets in the world. “Ultimate Vehicles” presents the technical features responsible for this.
One day it will be the longest-serving military aircraft: the B-52 Stratofortress. It is planned to be used for about 90 years. What is behind this legendary airplane’s longevity? And how does a plane with a 56-meter wingspan take off and land?
The Airbus A400M is considered the most modern transport aircraft in the world. For a propeller aircraft of this weight, it can fly unusually fast and high – but also slow and low – thus making it incredibly versatile.

Diego Garica was discovered by Portuguese explorers in the early sixteenth century and its name is believed to have come from either an early explorer's ship captain or its navigator. Under the Treaty of Paris of 1814, many of the islands in the Indian Ocean under the control of the French were ceded to Britain, including the Mauritius and the Chagos Islands. In 1965, these islands became the British Indian Ocean Territory. During the 19th Century, the islands were used as plantations, producing copra and coconut oils. Plantations on Diego Garcia were closed in 1971, following a decision to establish the U.S. Navy Support Facility based on the 1966 Exchange of Notes between Great Britain and the United States. In January 1971, U.S. Navy Seabees were transported to the island by landing ship to begin building the U.S. military presence on Diego Garcia. Today Diego Garcia is home to 15 separate commands, including the U.S. Navy Support Facility, which functions as the host command.
Its position is strategically vital for the US, allowing it to project its military strength northwest into the Middle East and South Asia, east into Asia, or west into Africa. It's the most important US base in the Indian Ocean region. Diego Garcia is surrounded by about 60 other atolls. Its coast forms a deep natural harbor, making it the perfect site for a naval base. Diego Garcia has been the site of important military action by the US. On the remote tropical island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean lies a secretive, strategically vital US military base. Before that, the site had proved its strategic importance for US military operations in the Middle East as a base for Air Force attacks in 1991 during the first Gulf War. From the base, long-range B52 bombers embarked on missions to Afghanistan in 2001, targeting Taliban and Qaeda positions in the country's mountains. The base is also vital as a refueling point for the US Navy and Air Force. Its deep port is able to accommodate aircraft carriers, nuclear submarines, and other ships. With Diego Garcia accessible only to restricted US military personnel, its secrecy has attracted speculation. Unlike the US military base in Guam, the spouses of personnel are not allowed on Diego Garcia. No journalist has visited. The UN court ruled that it was illegal for the British to demand possession of the islands as a condition of independence. Shortly afterward, the British leased Diego Garcia to the US. The UN has now served an eviction notice to the British. Though the ruling is not enforceable, it exerts moral pressure and has placed the future of the base in doubt. The base has served as a launchpad for US military operations in the Middle East and as a refueling point for Air Force patrols headed to the South China Sea, and it was even designated an emergency landing spot for space missions by NASA.

Thule Air Base is the US Armed Forces' northernmost installation. Thule's arctic environment includes icebergs in North Star Bay, two islands (Saunders Island and Wolstenholme Island), a polar ice sheet, and Wolstenholme Fjord – the only place on Earth where four active glaciers join together.
Thule Air Base is home to the 21st Space Wing's global network of sensors providing missile warning, space surveillance and space control to North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and Air Force Space Command (AFSPC).

Military Airplanes: Military aircraft that have made history, and that have driven technical innovation in aviation.
For several decades now, it has been aircraft above all that have decided the outcome of military conflicts. No wonder that unimaginable sums have been invested in their development. Engineers around the world assiduously improve the speed, range, versatility, and armament of military aircraft, thus decisively advancing innovation in aviation. Ultimate Vehicles showcases the best fighters, bombers, and transport aircraft.
It is the result of the largest armaments program of all time: the F-35 Lightning II. When developing it, engineers had to satisfy numerous demands at once: a stealth aircraft with high speed and excellent avionics. In addition, it had to have vertical and short takeoff capability. How well was this mammoth task executed?
It shocked the West and taught American bomber pilots during the Korean War the meaning of fear. The Mig-15 was the first Soviet fighter jet. Today there are only 12 airworthy Mig-15s left. We take off with one of them.
Three decades later, the successful aircraft manufacturer Mikoyan-Gurevich had another stroke of genius: the Mig-29. Its maneuverability is unparalleled, and today it is considered one of the best fighter jets in the world. “Ultimate Vehicles” presents the technical features responsible for this.
One day it will be the longest-serving military aircraft: the B-52 Stratofortress. It is planned to be used for about 90 years. What is behind this legendary airplane’s longevity? And how does a plane with a 56-meter wingspan take off and land?
The Airbus A400M is considered the most modern transport aircraft in the world. For a propeller aircraft of this weight, it can fly unusually fast and high – but also slow and low – thus making it incredibly versatile.

Diego Garica was discovered by Portuguese explorers in the early sixteenth century and its name is believed to have come from either an early explorer's ship captain or its navigator. Under the Treaty of Paris of 1814, many of the islands in the Indian Ocean under the control of the French were ceded to Britain, including the Mauritius and the Chagos Islands. In 1965, these islands became the British Indian Ocean Territory. During the 19th Century, the islands were used as plantations, producing copra and coconut oils. Plantations on Diego Garcia were closed in 1971, following a decision to establish the U.S. Navy Support Facility based on the 1966 Exchange of Notes between Great Britain and the United States. In January 1971, U.S. Navy Seabees were transported to the island by landing ship to begin building the U.S. military presence on Diego Garcia. Today Diego Garcia is home to 15 separate commands, including the U.S. Navy Support Facility, which functions as the host command.
Its position is strategically vital for the US, allowing it to project its military strength northwest into the Middle East and South Asia, east into Asia, or west into Africa. It's the most important US base in the Indian Ocean region. Diego Garcia is surrounded by about 60 other atolls. Its coast forms a deep natural harbor, making it the perfect site for a naval base. Diego Garcia has been the site of important military action by the US. On the remote tropical island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean lies a secretive, strategically vital US military base. Before that, the site had proved its strategic importance for US military operations in the Middle East as a base for Air Force attacks in 1991 during the first Gulf War. From the base, long-range B52 bombers embarked on missions to Afghanistan in 2001, targeting Taliban and Qaeda positions in the country's mountains. The base is also vital as a refueling point for the US Navy and Air Force. Its deep port is able to accommodate aircraft carriers, nuclear submarines, and other ships. With Diego Garcia accessible only to restricted US military personnel, its secrecy has attracted speculation. Unlike the US military base in Guam, the spouses of personnel are not allowed on Diego Garcia. No journalist has visited. The UN court ruled that it was illegal for the British to demand possession of the islands as a condition of independence. Shortly afterward, the British leased Diego Garcia to the US. The UN has now served an eviction notice to the British. Though the ruling is not enforceable, it exerts moral pressure and has placed the future of the base in doubt. The base has served as a launchpad for US military operations in the Middle East and as a refueling point for Air Force patrols headed to the South China Sea, and it was even designated an emergency landing spot for space missions by NASA.

Go behind the scenes at Kandahar Military Base in Afghanistan. Subscribe to Our Stories: https://bit.ly/3lzSXhv
This extraordinary programme follows the frontline forces at a purpose-built military town on the outskirts of Kandahar in Afghanistan, where 14,000 men and women live in perhaps the world's most dangerous Warzone. The Kandahar airbase is a key facility run by the British on behalf of NATO, and the Royal Air Force has an 800-strong presence there. The RAF is the most technologically advanced of all the forces and here it is pushed to the limit. While luxuries are few and far between, keeping a base running smoothly in the middle of a desert is a challenge in itself.

The 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group stores thousands of retired military, forest service, and NASA aircraft in the Arizona desert. The massive collection of F-16s, C-5s, B-52s, A-4 Skyhawks, and others would be the world's second largest air force. But the planes don't just come here to die. Parts are reclaimed and entire planes are regenerated so they can go back into service.
