In this episode, Jose “Houdini” Davis breaks down one of the most practical mission sets in modern Allied airpower: F2T2 — Find, Fix, Track, and Target. Using AIRCOM’s 5 March 2026 Eastern Sentry mission as the central example, the episode explains how NATO connects sensors, command and control, and decision-making across multiple domains to turn detection into operational effect.
This is not just a discussion about aircraft or weapons employment. The episode makes clear that F2T2 is a team effort built on ISR, command relationships, decision authority, and interoperability across Allied nations. Davis walks listeners through the logic of the targeting chain and shows why speed alone is not enough; what matters is disciplined speed, shared awareness, and the ability to act coherently under pressure.
The episode also places the March 2026 mission in the larger context of Eastern Sentry and NATO’s broader effort to strengthen deterrence and defence along the eastern flank. By connecting this event to earlier F2T2 missions and recent multi-domain training, Davis shows how NATO is building a more integrated, flexible, and responsive approach to air and missile defence.Recorded Friday, 13 March 2026.
