Grizzly Gauntlet 2025

Judges for the Grizzly Gauntlet weapons loading competition compare notes and scores after the 163d Aircraft Maintenance Squadron team completed the Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) scenario at March Air Reserve Base, Calif., March 25, 2025. The Grizzly Gauntlet is an annual competition specific to the Air National Guard that tests various weapons loading skills on the MQ-9 Reaper platform, including speed, proficiency, safety, and teamwork. Four units participated in this week-long event, which not only assesses skills but also fosters relationships within the MQ-9 Reaper community, aiding seamless integration for both current and future missions.(U.S. Air National Guard Photograph by Master Sgt.
