More info is available on the AFMuseum page. I was wrong though. The 187th is based out of Alabama. The target in Dayton is from the 162nd.

Yeah, this one is easy for military aviation geeks

It is a towed arial target for air to air gunnery practice. Specifically, it is at the Wright Patterson AF museum in Dayton Ohio. The holes in it are from 50cal bullets.

IIRC, this specific target was used by a reserve/national guard unit near Toledo before it was retired.
