    An F-35A Lightning II stealth fighter jet is captured during takeoff or landing on a runway, with its nose gear slightly elevated suggesting it is in the rotation phase of takeoff. The aircraft bears 'VT' tail codes indicating assignment to a Vermont Air National Guard unit. The setting appears to be a military airfield surrounded by green grass and tree lines under a partly cloudy sky.

    An F-35A Lightning II assigned to the 158th Fighter Wing, Vermont Air National Guard, takes off for a training mission at Northern Lightning, a training exercise held annually at Volk Field, Wisc., Aug. 13, 2020. Lt. Col. John “Rocky” MacRae, assigned to the 134th Fighter Squadron, Vermont Air National Guard, was piloting this Tail 5279, which achieved the thousandth sortie milestone for the Green Mountain Boys.

    Two military personnel are shaking hands on an airfield tarmac in front of a stealth fighter jet, identified as an F-35 based on its distinctive shape and markings. One individual is wearing a green flight suit, while the other is in tan/OCP-style combat uniform with hearing protection around his neck. A third person is partially visible in the background near the aircraft's landing gear.
    An F-35A Lightning II stealth fighter jet is captured during takeoff or landing on a runway, with its nose gear slightly elevated suggesting it is in the rotation phase of takeoff. The aircraft bears 'VT' tail codes indicating assignment to a Vermont Air National Guard unit. The setting appears to be a military airfield surrounded by green grass and tree lines under a partly cloudy sky.
    A military aircraft maintainer in blue coveralls stands on a flight line beneath what appears to be an F-35 stealth fighter jet. The technician is wearing a communication headset with a boom microphone and holding a communication cord, suggesting active ground crew communication during pre-flight or post-flight operations. The setting is a military airfield on a clear, sunny day.
    A military jet aircraft, consistent with an F-35 Lightning II design, is captured just above the runway in a takeoff or low-altitude flight phase. The aircraft is photographed at a military or joint-use airfield, with runway markings and taxiway infrastructure visible in the foreground. A treeline forms the background horizon under a partly cloudy sky.
    A military ground crew member wearing hearing protection and a blue flight suit with a US flag patch stands on a tarmac observing an F-35 Lightning II stealth fighter jet. The aircraft bears tail markings 'VT' and serial number '5279', indicating it belongs to the Vermont Air National Guard. The scene appears to be on an active airfield under clear daytime conditions.
    A ground crew member wearing hearing protection and a flight suit is marshaling an F-35 Lightning II fighter jet (tail number 5279) on a military airfield tarmac. A pilot is visible in the cockpit under the raised canopy. The scene appears to be taking place during daytime at what looks like a military air base or airshow.
    A military ground crew member in a blue flight suit is saluting beneath an F-35 Lightning II fighter jet on a flight line, with tail number 5279 visible on the fuselage. A pilot is visible in the cockpit above, suggesting pre-flight or post-flight operations are underway. The scene appears to take place at a military air base with hangars and support personnel visible in the background.
    Three military fighter jets, consistent with F-35 Lightning II aircraft, are taxiing in formation on a runway at an airbase. The aircraft are lined up in a single-file formation moving along the tarmac. The background features green treeline, a low hill, and a partly cloudy sky.
    Two military aviators in olive green flight suits are walking across what appears to be a flight line or tarmac. The man in the foreground is bald, smiling, and carrying a large olive drab gear bag on his back along with a black backpack. Both individuals appear to be returning from or heading to a flight operation.
    A military pilot is seated in the cockpit of what appears to be an F-35 Lightning II stealth fighter jet. The pilot is wearing a full flight helmet with visor and oxygen mask, visible through the closed canopy. The aircraft's fuselage displays standard safety markings including ejection seat warnings and rescue instructions.
    A military ground crew member wearing green ear protection headsets is marshaling a fighter jet on a flight line or tarmac. The person faces away from the camera with both fists raised, performing standard aircraft marshaling hand signals. The fighter aircraft in the background is blurred due to shallow depth of field but appears to be a modern stealth jet, likely an F-35.
    A single military jet fighter is captured in flight against a clear blue sky, leaving two white condensation trails behind it. The aircraft appears to be a fifth-generation stealth fighter, viewed from below at an angle showing its top surface. The image is sharp and well-exposed, with strong contrast between the dark aircraft and the bright sky.
