    Multiple F-35B Lightning II fighter jets belonging to the United States Marine Corps are taxiing on a flight line, with unit markings 'VMFA-314' visible on at least one aircraft. The aircraft bear tail numbers including 302 and 300, and display USMC roundel insignia. In the background, a legacy fighter aircraft — appearing to be an F/A-18 Hornet — is on approach or low-altitude flight over the airfield.
