RF-A is a series of Pacific Air Forces commander-directed field training exercises for U.S. and partner nation forces, providing combined offensive counter-air, interdiction, close air support and large force employment training in a simulated combat environment.

Guys that use the Surefire HL1 have been looking wistfully at the twisty Energizer Hard Case helmet light since it came out. The Hard Case made it on the Army’s family of flashlights list, while the Surefire didn’t, probably because it rotated and could mount righty/lefty.

Surefire is still mulling over what to do with the old mount. The new mount has a pretty chunky profile when compared to the original. Also, the original mount is jump certified, where the replacement is not. At least, not yet.

UPDATE: Video Added.
