    U.S. Airmen assigned to the 125th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, Florida Air National Guard, prepare to tow an F-35A Lightning II after it engaged a BAK-14 barrier arresting system cable during a certification test at Jacksonville International Airport on May 28, 2025. The test validated emergency arresting procedures and ensured the aircraft’s operational readiness. The barrier arresting system is a safety mechanism designed to rapidly decelerate aircraft during aborted takeoffs or emergency landings.(U.S. Air National Guard photo by Staff Sgt. Jacob Hancock)
