    18th Wing

    A U.S. Air Force F-35A Lightning II assigned to the 421st Expeditionary Fighter Squadron, deployed to Kadena Air Base, conducts aerial refueling with a KC-135 Stratotanker assigned to the 909th Air Refueling Squadron during a routine training over the Pacific Ocean, Sept. 30, 2025. The continuous rotation of aircraft to Kadena ensures the 18th Wing remains flexible and postured to deliver lethal and credible airpower to deter acts of aggression.
