    A U.S. Marine Corps F-35B stealth fighter jet is parked on a flight line tarmac, surrounded by ground crew personnel in green flight suits. Maintenance and ordnance crew members appear to be conducting pre-flight or post-flight servicing, including positioning what appears to be a munition on a weapons loading cart. The setting appears to be a desert air base during golden hour lighting conditions.
