    An F-35B stealth fighter jet is performing a short takeoff or vertical landing (STOVL) operation from the flight deck of an amphibious assault ship at sea. The aircraft's lift fan and exhaust nozzle appear to be in STOVL configuration, with visible heat distortion and exhaust vapor beneath the aircraft. The ship's deck markings, safety lighting, and ski-jump ramp edge are clearly visible in calm ocean conditions.

    A U.S. Marine Corps F-35B Lightning II, assigned to Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMFA) 211, Marine Aircraft Group 13, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, descends to the flight deck of the USS Essex (LHD-2) during Exercise Dawn Blitz, Oct. 22, 2017. Dawn Blitz is a scenario-driven amphibious exercise conducted between Expeditionary Strike Group 3 and 1st Marine Expeditionary Brigade, testing their ability to conduct amphibious operations in response to global crises and to project power ashore as part of a Navy-Marine Corps team.

    A stealth fighter jet, identifiable as an F-35B, is positioned on the flight deck of a large amphibious assault ship at sea. The aircraft appears to be preparing for a short takeoff or has just landed, with deck crew and support vehicles visible nearby. The ship's island superstructure is visible on the left, and calm open ocean surrounds the vessel.
    A fifth-generation stealth fighter jet, identifiable as an F-35B, is captured in a short takeoff or vertical landing (STOVL) maneuver above the deck of what appears to be an amphibious assault ship or aircraft carrier. The aircraft's landing gear is fully deployed and its lift fan door is open, consistent with vertical landing operations. The ocean is visible in the background, confirming an at-sea operational environment.
    A U.S. military F-35B Lightning II stealth fighter jet is positioned on the flight deck of a naval vessel, likely an amphibious assault ship. The aircraft bears the number '02' and a U.S. Air Force/Navy star-and-bar insignia, with its cockpit canopy open and a pilot seated inside. The ship is underway on open blue ocean waters.
    A stealth fighter jet, consistent with an F-35B, is positioned on the flight deck of an amphibious assault ship at sea. The aircraft appears to be stationary or taxiing, with its lift fan door open on top of the fuselage, suggesting STOVL (Short Take-Off and Vertical Landing) configuration. The image is taken from an elevated vantage point on the ship's island superstructure, with open ocean visible in the background.
    An F-35B stealth fighter jet is captured in a short takeoff or vertical landing (STOVL) maneuver on what appears to be an amphibious assault ship flight deck. The aircraft is hovering just above the deck surface with all landing gear deployed, over open ocean. The image is taken from an elevated vantage point on the ship's superstructure.
    An F-35B stealth fighter jet is performing a short takeoff or vertical landing (STOVL) operation from the flight deck of an amphibious assault ship at sea. The aircraft's lift fan and exhaust nozzle appear to be in STOVL configuration, with visible heat distortion and exhaust vapor beneath the aircraft. The ship's deck markings, safety lighting, and ski-jump ramp edge are clearly visible in calm ocean conditions.
    Two military personnel wearing flight deck safety gear, including helmets and hearing protection/respirators, observe flight deck operations from an elevated catwalk or gallery on what appears to be a US Navy amphibious assault ship. A fixed-wing aircraft, consistent with an F-35B, is visible on the flight deck below. The scene takes place at sea under clear blue skies.
    An F-35B Lightning II stealth fighter jet is positioned on the flight deck of what appears to be a U.S. Navy amphibious assault ship, identifiable by the 'ESSEX' text partially visible on the aircraft's side and the 'VMFA-211' Marine Fighter Attack Squadron markings. The aircraft bears the tail number '02' and a U.S. military star insignia, indicating it belongs to the United States Marine Corps. The ship is underway at sea, with open ocean visible in the background.
    An F-35B Lightning II stealth fighter jet is positioned on the flight deck of what appears to be a U.S. Navy amphibious assault ship, likely an LHA or LHD class vessel. The aircraft is facing forward on the deck with its landing gear deployed, surrounded by deck crew in colored jerseys. Multiple rotary-wing aircraft, likely AH-1Z Vipers or UH-1Y Venoms, are parked along the starboard side of the deck with rotor blades folded.
    A fifth-generation stealth fighter jet, consistent with an F-35 variant, is positioned on the flight deck of a naval aircraft carrier at sea. The aircraft appears to be either landing or taxiing on the deck, with all landing gear deployed. The image is taken from an elevated angle, showing the carrier deck markings, edge safety railings, and open ocean surrounding the vessel.
    A U.S. Marines F-35B stealth fighter jet is positioned on the flight deck of an amphibious assault ship, likely preparing for or having just completed a short takeoff or vertical landing operation. The aircraft bears 'MARINES' markings and is numbered '12', with a pilot visible in the cockpit. The ship's deck features yellow painted markings and the open ocean is visible in the background.
