Special Operations Forces Industry Conference 2018
The 2018 Special Operations Forces Industry Conference (SOFIC) took place in its usual location of Tampa, Florida between May 21 and 24th this year. Every other year elements from the US Army's 160th SOAR (A) deploy to the area to provide an airborne infiltration asset for the capabilities demo that consists of land, air and sea assets and operators from around the world. The actual display took place on the Wednesday, but a rehearsal took place on the Tuesday, allowing me to get 2 angles in total.

Great photos, and brilliant vantages you had for these. If I'm honest, in some of these shots the blacks look a little too dark for my taste.

They (SOAR) will have to invest in some very dark grey paint instead . lol

Nope, it's across every screen I've seen them on.
