U.S. Air Force Airmen and master labor contractors assigned to the 18th Civil Engineer Squadron realign support blocks after an aircraft arresting system certification at Kadena Air Base, Japan, May 7, 2026. The blocks are spaced to ensure the system’s cable maintains minimum clearance thresholds, preventing the aircraft’s tail hook from skipping over the barrier cable.
