    A Marine with Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMFA) 211, Carrier Strike Group (CSG) 21 "The Wake Island Avengers" prepare to conduct night carrier qualifications in an F-35B Joint Strike Fighter Lightning II aboard Her Majesty's Ship (HMS) Queen Elizabeth at sea off the coast of the United Kingdom (UK) on 07 May, 2021. Alongside the UK's 617 Squadron, VMFA-211 will form part of the largest 5th-generation carrier air group in the world. This deployment highlights the global reach of the U.S. and UK armed forces and their interoperability, and enhances the deterrence and defense capabilities of the NATO Alliance
