    An F-35B Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter flown by the commanding officer of Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMFA) 211 "The Wake Island Avengers" after becoming the first USMC F-35 to land onboard HMS Queen Elizabeth on 22 September, 2020, off the coast of the United Kingdom (UK). VMFA-211 joined the UK's 617 Squadron onboard the 65,000 ton carrier as she sailed for exercises with NATO allies in the North Sea, forming the largest 5th generation Carrier Air Wing in the world. “The Wake Island Avengers” are proud to represent the United States Marine Corps and United States of America while they serve as part of the UK’s Carrier Strike Group.

    A formation of military personnel in woodland MARPAT camouflage uniforms are standing at parade rest on what appears to be the flight deck of a naval vessel. The backdrop reveals a coastal city skyline, identifiable by the distinctive Spinnaker Tower, indicating the location is Portsmouth, England. The scene suggests a formal military ceremony or muster aboard a ship docked at or near Portsmouth Harbour.
    An aerial photograph of a large Royal Navy aircraft carrier viewed from above and slightly to the side, showing the full flight deck with multiple aircraft parked on it. The vessel is underway or anchored in open, calm grey waters. The ship features the distinctive twin island superstructure characteristic of the Queen Elizabeth-class carriers, with hull markings visible on the port side.

The scene is captured during low-light conditions, likely at dusk or dawn, at sea.
    A military aircraft, identifiable as an F-35B stealth fighter jet, is positioned on what appears to be the flight deck of an aircraft carrier. Two deck crew members in flight suits and colored helmets are walking in front of the aircraft, carrying chains used for aircraft tie-downs. Additional personnel, vehicles, and at least one more aircraft are visible in the background.
    A fifth-generation stealth fighter jet, consistent with an F-35B variant, is captured hovering or approaching for a vertical/short landing on what appears to be an aircraft carrier flight deck. The landing gear is fully deployed, suggesting an imminent touchdown. The image was taken from a low angle on the flight deck, providing a dramatic perspective of the aircraft against a clear blue sky.

Two large military helicopters are positioned on the left side alongside a fifth-generation stealth fighter jet on the right. Several flight deck personnel in high-visibility vests are visible on the left side of the image.
    Two fifth-generation stealth fighter jets are visible on what appears to be an aircraft carrier flight deck. One aircraft is parked on the deck in the foreground, while a second is on final approach for landing in the background. The image is taken in low-light or hazy conditions, giving the scene a silhouetted, dramatic appearance.
    A fifth-generation stealth fighter jet, identifiable as an F-35B, is positioned on the flight deck of what appears to be a naval amphibious assault ship or aircraft carrier.

    Two Marine Corps aviation maintenance personnel from VMFA-211 are observing an F-35B aircraft on what appears to be a flight deck or airstrip. The individual on the left is identified as the 'Mx Chief' (Maintenance Chief) and the one on the right as 'QAC' (Quality Assurance Chief). An F-35B is visible in the background, appearing to be in a short takeoff or vertical landing configuration.
    Two U.S. Marine Corps personnel from VMFA-211 (one designated 'Mx Chief' and one 'QAC') observe an F-35B aircraft on what appears to be a flight deck or airfield tarmac. Both personnel are wearing flight deck helmets with unit insignia and white safety vests. A third individual in a yellow safety vest labeled 'LA BALMER' is visible on the right side of the frame.
    A military personnel wearing a yellow fire-resistant suit and blue helmet labeled 'LUCAS' observes an F-35B fighter jet performing a short takeoff or vertical landing maneuver from the deck of an aircraft carrier at sea. The jet's lift fan or engine exhaust has produced a visible plume of steam/smoke on the carrier deck below. The scene takes place over open ocean under clear blue skies.
    An F-35B stealth fighter jet is captured in a short takeoff or vertical landing (STOVL) maneuver above what appears to be a Royal Navy aircraft carrier, identifiable by its gray hull and island superstructure. The aircraft's landing gear is deployed and a large plume of exhaust or steam is visible below, consistent with the jet's lift fan and thrust vectoring system in operation. The scene takes place over open ocean under clear blue skies.
    Two F-35 fighter jets are visible on what appears to be an aircraft carrier flight deck, with one aircraft taxiing on the deck and a second approaching for landing in the background. The image is taken from a low angle looking down the length of the flight deck toward the horizon over open water. Ship superstructure elements including radar and communications equipment are visible on the right side of the frame.
    A U.S. military F-35B Lightning II stealth fighter jet is captured in flight with landing gear fully deployed, suggesting an approach to landing or hover maneuver. The aircraft's lift fan door is open on top of the fuselage, which is characteristic of the F-35B's short takeoff and vertical landing (STOVL) variant. An American flag decal is prominently visible on the lift fan door, and U.S. Air Force/Marine Corps markings are present on the fuselage.
    An F-35B stealth fighter jet is captured in a short takeoff or vertical landing (STOVL) approach above the flight deck of an aircraft carrier at sea. The aircraft's landing gear is deployed, suggesting it is in a landing or low-speed hover configuration. A hazy maritime atmosphere surrounds the scene, with visible exhaust or steam rising from the carrier deck.
