    U.S. Air Force Airmen assigned to the 18th Civil Engineering Squadron perform the annual certification of the Barrier Arresting Kit at Kadena Air Base, Japan, Sept. 24, 2021. Annual BAK certifications test the stability and effectiveness of the system, which acts as a braking mechanism to stop the aircraft in the event of an emergency.

    The image shows a military airfield environment with ground support vehicles parked near a small orange-and-white utility building numbered '1063'. In the background, a military jet aircraft (likely an F-15) is visible on or near the runway. The scene appears to be taken during daytime under partly cloudy skies.
    Two individuals in military-style uniforms are working on a large piece of mechanical equipment, likely a military generator or engine, inside a maintenance bay or workshop. One person stands on the near side while the other leans over from the far side, both appearing to inspect or service the machinery. The setting is a well-lit industrial workspace with various tools and gas cylinders visible in the background.
    Two military personnel in tan t-shirts and camouflage pants are working with what appears to be ammunition or equipment in an indoor facility. The foreground soldier is leaning over and closely inspecting or handling a piece of military equipment, possibly an ammunition belt or linked rounds. The setting appears to be a maintenance bay or armory.
    A U.S. Air Force F-15 Eagle fighter jet with tail code 'ZZ' and serial number '095' is taxiing on a runway at what appears to be a military airbase. The aircraft is painted in standard gray livery and is photographed from a low angle across a grass infield. A runway arresting cable system is visible in the foreground right of the image.
    A military service member in camouflage uniform is bent over on an airfield runway, handling what appears to be a jet blast deflector cable or arresting gear cable. In the background, a military jet aircraft — likely an F-15 — is taxiing or landing on the runway. The scene takes place on a clear day at a military air base.
    A person wearing military-style camouflage clothing and Mechanix M-Pact tactical gloves is handling a large tire, likely a helicopter or aircraft tire based on visible sidewall markings. The individual is wearing tan/brown tactical boots and working on a metal grated surface. A rusty metal rod or pipe is visible on the deck nearby.
    A twin-engine military fighter jet, consistent with an F-15 Eagle, is photographed from a direct rear perspective on an active airfield taxiway. Ground crew personnel are visible beneath and around the aircraft, performing pre-flight or post-flight servicing operations. Two support vehicles are visible in the background on the right side of the runway.
    A military service member in camouflage uniform stands on an airfield tarmac with both arms raised and index fingers pointing upward, performing what appears to be aircraft marshaling signals. The individual is wearing a tan t-shirt, MultiCam/OCP pattern trousers, and tan combat boots. The setting appears to be a military airfield with a runway, green grass, and tree-covered hills visible in the background.
    The image shows a close-up of a bridge bearing assembly, specifically what appears to be a pot bearing or seismic isolation bearing mounted between a concrete pier/abutment and a steel bridge girder. The bearing consists of a cylindrical elastomeric or mechanical core sandwiched between upper and lower steel plates secured with bolts. Some surface rust is visible on the hardware, suggesting the structure has been in service for some time.
    A military service member in OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniform is bent over working on what appears to be an arresting cable or runway equipment on an airfield tarmac. The individual is wearing tactical gloves and combat boots while handling a thick cable or bar embedded in a track on the runway surface. The background reveals a military airfield with hangars, green vegetation, and a clear blue sky.
