    A U.S. military LC-130 Hercules aircraft with distinctive orange and white Arctic markings is parked on a snow-covered runway or frozen surface. A military heavy tactical truck (appears to be an LMTV or HEMTT variant) is positioned nearby, with several personnel visible on the ground. The scene suggests a cold-weather logistics or resupply operation, likely in Alaska or a similar Arctic environment.

    U.S. Marines with 5th Battalion, 11th Marine Regiment, load a M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) onto a U.S. Air Force LC-130H assigned to the 109th Airlift Wing of the New York Air National Guard during U.S. Northern Command’s Exercise Arctic Edge. Arctic Edge 2020 is a North American Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Northern Command exercise scheduled every two years. The exercise focuses on training, experimentation, techniques, tactics, and procedures development for Homeland Defense operations in an Arctic environment. Arctic Edge 20 provides opportunities to validate Arctic capabilities. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Amy Picard)
