    Two personnel in silver aluminized proximity/fire-resistant suits are conducting what appears to be an aircraft rescue and firefighting (ARFF) training exercise on a United States military or government aircraft. One individual is using an orange rotary rescue saw to cut through the aircraft's wing or fuselage, while the other appears to be managing a water or foam suppression line. The aircraft fuselage bears 'UNITED' markings with a rescue access panel outlined in yellow, and the scene shows wet ground consistent with fire suppression agent application.
