Silent Linchpins: Non-Destructive Inspection Airmen power Luke’s mission through

U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Ahmad May, 56th Equipment Maintenance Squadron non-destructive inspection journeyman, prepares a joint oil analysis, Feb. 17, 2026, at Luke Air Force Base, Arizona. NDI uses advanced technology to evaluate the integrity of metals and composite materials without requiring disassembly or destructive testing. This process allows technicians to detect flaws that may not be visible to the naked eye. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Tekorey Watkins)
