    A military jet aircraft, identifiable as an F-35B Lightning II, is captured in the process of vertical/short takeoff or landing (VSTOL) on what appears to be an amphibious assault ship or aircraft carrier flight deck. The aircraft's landing gear is deployed and it hovers just above the deck surface, with visible exhaust/heat distortion behind it. The scene takes place over open ocean under a partly cloudy sky.
