Maintainers have begun installing new, more durable canopies on the 388th Fighter Wing's fleet of F-35A Lightning IIs. The outer surface of the canopy is part of what makes up the jet's stealth or "low observable" capabilities. Canopy degradation can lead to lower aircraft availability. While maintainers have the capability to make canopy repairs virtually anywhere, the new canopies are designed to reduce the need for field repairs. (U.S. Air Force photo by Micah Garbarino)
