1. usaf is always seeking better tires for the aircraft
2. in order to do good testing, they need to know what the runways really look like - close up and personal
3. they put a 3D scanner in the middle of a runway and record every pebble and grain of concrete and all the other smootz
4. they then build a 3D replica of the runway - maybe with a 3D printer - and then test the hell out of any new tires they are developing
at least I think that is what they are doing - in 4 lines
