## Description

At Fort Smith the fast jets belong to other nations, the freight belongs to the river. Fort Smith Regional Airport (IATA: FSM, ICAO: KFSM) shares its runways with Ebbing Air National Guard Base, home since 1953 to the 188th Wing — now flying the MQ-9 Reaper alongside intelligence and space-targeting missions. Since 2023 Ebbing has been the U.S. Air Force's Foreign Military Sales training centre for F-16 and F-35 pilots from Switzerland, Germany, Poland, Finland and Singapore, whose F-35s are due in late 2026. Civilian travellers fly American Eagle to Dallas/Fort Worth; air cargo is negligible and moves via Memphis (MEM) and the I-40. The region's tonnage rides barges on the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System.
