    An F-35 Lightning II stealth fighter jet is captured in aerial flight over a arid, semi-desert landscape featuring a patchwork of irrigated agricultural fields. The aircraft appears to be on a routine training or ferry flight, photographed from another aircraft flying in close proximity. The terrain below suggests a southwestern United States desert region, likely near a military installation.

    An F-35B Lightning II, also known as the Joint Strike Fighter, breaks away from a KC-130 after an aerial refueling above Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Ariz., Nov. 20. This F-35B is the second aircraft to join the newly- designated Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 121. The aircraft later landed at MCAS Yuma during a re-designation ceremony for the squadron.
