    The boom from a Tennessee Air National Guard’s KC-135 transfers fuel to one of Israel’s first F-35s as the aircraft make the flight across the Atlantic, Dec, 6, 2016. The F-35s were refueled multiple times while en route to ensure their safe delivery to Israel. (U.S. Air Force photo by 1st Lt. Erik D. Anthony)

    Two F-35 Lightning II fifth-generation stealth fighter jets are flying in formation above a dense cloud layer. Both aircraft are photographed from an elevated angle, likely from a tanker or chase aircraft, showing their top profiles clearly. The jets appear to be in a standard two-ship formation flight over an overcast sky.
    An aerial refueling operation is captured from the boom operator's window of a tanker aircraft. An F-35 fighter jet bearing an Israeli Air Force Star of David emblem on its canopy is receiving fuel via a refueling boom. A second F-35, marked with 'TENN' and 'ANG' (Tennessee Air National Guard) tail markings, is visible in the background awaiting its turn.
