Reaper Smoke 2026

Approximately 200 active component, Air Force Reserve, Air National Guard and U.S. Marine Corps members participated in Exercise Reaper Smoke 2026 here, April 14-16, 2026. Hosted by the 867th Attack Squadron from Creech AFB, Nevada, the remotely piloted aircraft enterprise event is a competition that tests their weapons precision, crew resource management and overall Airmanship. As demand for the MQ-9 Reaper platform increases and plays a fundamental role in real-world scenarios, exercises like this have become increasingly important in keeping aircrews fit to fight.
