    Two military aircraft are parked on a flight line at what appears to be an Alaskan air base, with ground crew personnel conducting maintenance or pre-flight operations. The primary aircraft is an F-35A Lightning II bearing tail markings 'AK 354FW' (354th Fighter Wing) with serial number 5345, indicating assignment to Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska. A second aircraft, partially visible on the right, appears to be an F-16 with distinctive colorful markings.

    U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Steven Krutke, an F-35 avionics system craftsman with the 356th Aircraft Maintenance Unit (AMU), prepares to place chalks for one of the first of two F-35A Lightning II fifth-generation aircraft assigned to the 356th Fighter Squadron after its arrival at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, April 21, 2020. The F-35A, the U.S. Air Force’s latest fifth-generation fighter, brings an enhanced capability to survive in the advanced threat environment in which it was designed to operate, and the Airmen of 356th AMU will ensure the jets are prepared for their combat-coded mission.
