An F-35A Lightning II taxis before takeoff to participate in simulated defensive counter air operations Dec. 8, 2016, at Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida. The 33d Fighter Wing deployed six F-35A Lightning II and 95 personnel to Checkered Flag 17-1. Checkered Flag is a combat rehearsal where 15 aircraft platforms take to the skies to fly realistic and large-scale operations to prepare for contingency operations. Specifically, this exercise tested the range of capabilities for the F-35A and the 33 FW student and instructor pilots, maintainers, air battle managers and intelligence officers by operating from two locations.
