A U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle assigned to the 492nd Fighter Squadron, RAF Lakenheath, lowers its hook after travelling down the active runway ready to catch a Mobile Aircraft Arresting System for a barrier certification test at RAF Mildenhall, England, Sept. 12, 2025. Airmen and civilians from the 100th Civil Engineer Squadron Power Production shop regularly test the system and annually conduct certification testing, which is designed to quickly stop aircraft in emergencies, preventing accidents during takeoff or landing, and extending the survivability of our warfighters.
