    A dark-colored military bomber aircraft is photographed in flight against an overcast gray sky. The aircraft displays visible engine afterburner glow from its four engines, suggesting high-thrust operation. The variable-sweep wing configuration and overall silhouette are consistent with a B-1 Lancer strategic bomber.

    A B-1B Lancer’s afterburners glow after taking off from Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, Sept. 24, 2020. The bomber, assigned to the 345th Expeditionary Bomb Squadron, was on its way to Norway to practice interoperability training with Nordic allies in support of a Bomber Task Force mission. It crossed the Arctic Circle, a region of strategic significance, to help aircrews gain familiarity with the area and ensure it remains a stable and open international environment.

    A dark-colored military bomber aircraft is photographed in flight against an overcast gray sky. The aircraft displays visible engine afterburner glow from its four engines, suggesting high-thrust operation. The variable-sweep wing configuration and overall silhouette are consistent with a B-1 Lancer strategic bomber.
    A military aircraft, consistent with the silhouette of a B-1B Lancer strategic bomber, is captured during takeoff or low-altitude flight over a runway in overcast, stormy conditions. The aircraft is viewed from a rear-facing angle, with its variable-sweep wings visible in a swept-back configuration. Runway lighting in green, red, and white is visible below against a backdrop of dark treeline and heavy cloud cover.
    A smiling pilot or crew member is visible through the side window of a large, dark-painted military aircraft. The aircraft fuselage shows riveted metal construction with a rain-covered surface, suggesting wet weather conditions. A second crew member is partially visible through the adjacent canopy section.
    A military aviator or crew member stands on a flight line tarmac, looking upward toward an aircraft wing visible in the upper portion of the frame. The individual is wearing a flight suit, tactical vest, and brown knit cap, suggesting cold-weather operations. The setting appears to be an airfield during autumn, with bare and partially-leafed trees visible in the background under an overcast sky.
    A ground crew technician stands beneath a large military aircraft on a wet tarmac, wearing hearing protection and a tan jacket. The image is taken from under the aircraft, showing the landing gear, wheel assembly, and what appears to be an open weapons bay or equipment bay. The setting appears to be an overcast, rainy day at a military airfield with trees visible in the background.
    A U.S. Air Force B-1B Lancer strategic bomber is photographed in flight during twilight or dawn conditions. The aircraft bears the tail code 'DY', indicating assignment to Dyess Air Force Base, Texas. It is flying at altitude over what appears to be a snow-covered or icy landscape below.
    A single military jet fighter aircraft is photographed in flight against a partly cloudy blue sky. The aircraft appears to be an F-16 Fighting Falcon variant, bearing the tail number '677' and what appears to be national insignia markings on the tail fin. The aircraft is captured in a level flight attitude, photographed from a nearby aircraft or aerial platform.
