    A U.S. Air Force F-35A Lightning II receives fuel from a KC-135 Stratotanker assigned to the 117th Air Refueling Wing, Sumpter Smith Joint National Guard Base, Alabama, in support of a Red Flag-Nellis 25-3 mission over the Nevada Test and Training Range, July 24, 2025. Night exercises are critical for rehearsing counterair, suppression of enemy air defenses, and interdiction tactics in challenging conditions, while also testing aircraft maintenance and agility to ensure units are ready for a wide range of combat scenarios.
