    An F-35A Lightning II assigned to Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, awaits refueling at Northwest Field as part of Agile Combat Employment (ACE) multi-capable Airmen training during Cope North 21 at Andersen AFB, Guam, Feb. 16, 2021. Exercising elements of ACE during Cope North enables U.S. and Allied forces to operate from austere operating bases, enhancing our capacity and capability for response in times of crisis or conflict.

    A military jet aircraft, consistent with an F-35 design, is visible on a wet tarmac runway, photographed through tall grass in the foreground. Ground support personnel and a military vehicle are visible near the aircraft. The image appears to be taken from a low vantage point at the edge of the airfield.
    A row of F-35A Lightning II stealth fighter jets is parked on a flight line, all bearing 'AK' tail codes indicating assignment to an Alaska-based unit, likely the 354th Fighter Wing at Eielson Air Force Base. Ground crew personnel are visible on the tarmac attending to the aircraft. A red ground support equipment cart is positioned in the foreground on the taxiway.
    Military ground crew personnel are conducting hot pit refueling operations on what appears to be an F-35 stealth fighter aircraft on a flight line. Three service members in military uniforms are visible, with one actively managing the fuel hose connected to the aircraft's fueling port. The operation is taking place at an outdoor airfield with vegetation visible in the background.
    A military personnel in multicam/OCP camouflage uniform is inspecting or servicing the landing gear of a military aircraft on a tarmac. The individual is crouched down, examining the nose or main landing gear tire and strut assembly up close. The setting appears to be an outdoor airfield with vegetation visible in the background.
    Two military personnel in camouflage uniforms are conducting a pre-flight or post-flight inspection of an aircraft wing tip. The individual in the foreground is reaching up to touch or examine the underside of the wing while wearing hearing protection and eye protection pushed up on their head. Both individuals are wearing face masks and hearing protection, consistent with flight line safety protocols.
    Two military ground crew personnel in camouflage uniforms are conducting hot-pit or standard refueling operations on an F-35 Lightning II stealth fighter jet on a flight line. The aircraft is parked on a tarmac with its nose gear and main landing gear deployed, and a fuel hose is visibly connected to the aircraft. The setting appears to be a tropical or subtropical airfield based on the lush green vegetation visible in the background.
    The image shows multiple F-35A Lightning II fighter jets on a taxiway or flight line at what appears to be a tropical military airfield. The foreground aircraft bears the tail code 'AK' and serial number '15350', indicating it belongs to an Alaska-based unit. Ground personnel and a large transport aircraft, likely a C-130, are visible in the background.

    A military ground crew member in a high-visibility yellow vest and camouflage uniform is marshalling an F-35 Lightning II stealth fighter jet on a taxiway. The aircraft is facing forward with its landing gear deployed and canopy closed, with a pilot visible in the cockpit. The scene appears to take place at a military airfield surrounded by tropical vegetation.
    A U.S. Air Force F-35A Lightning II stealth fighter jet is taxiing on a runway, marked with tail code 'AK' and serial number 5377. The aircraft appears to be in operational condition with landing gear deployed and a pilot visible in the cockpit. The 'AK' tail code indicates assignment to Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska.
    A single stealth fighter jet, identifiable as an F-35 Lightning II, is captured in flight against a clear, cloudless blue sky. The aircraft is banking or maneuvering, producing two white condensation/vapor trails streaming from its wingtips or control surfaces. The image is sharp and well-exposed, suggesting a telephoto lens was used at an airshow or similar aviation event.
    A fifth-generation stealth fighter jet, consistent with an F-35 Lightning II, is captured in flight against a clear, cloudless blue sky. The aircraft is banking at an angle, viewed from below, with two prominent condensation trails (contrails) streaming behind it. The image is sharp and well-exposed, suggesting a telephoto lens capture during a high-altitude or high-speed maneuver.
