"The Air Force is training what it calls multi-capable airmen to support ACE operations by doing several jobs at lightly manned outposts. US special operators also have a role in ACE, especially when it involves highways. Air Force commandos are specially trained to survey potential airfields and to conduct air traffic during dispersed operations."
"US special-operator forces have been working on another key concept known as Forward Arming and Refuting Points, which goes hand-in-hand with ACE. Aircraft need to be refueled and rearmed wherever they are, especially if they have to deploy to remote, austere location on short notice."
"Like the RAF, the US Air Force has turned to its Scandinavian partners for pointers. Gen. James Hecker, the head of US Air Forces in Europe, said last year that his command was sending airmen to study the Swedish approach.
"The ability to disperse aircraft is a speciality of theirs," Hecker said in August 2022, according to Janes. "Sweden has got Agile Combat Employment down better than any other air force in the world, and we are going to exploit that.""
