How does Red Flag (USAF) work?

I was wondering, how does the large scale "Red Flag" war game work?
How do you shoot down an Aggressor? Does a Blue fighter pilot use blanks or simply lock on to the Aggressor?
Please help out a future fighter pilot out

No one?
Not one person?

Red Flag is a huge series of events from multiple players around the United States. It ranges from Air to Air, Air to Ground and space systems designed to identify the enemy and destroy them. Some people actually fly for real while others perform flying in a simulator somewhere. The data is collected after the event and anaylzed to see our effectiveness.

A good training tool for all players involved.
