A U.S. Air Force F-22 Raptor aircraft assigned to the 3rd Wing takes off during a routine training sortie at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, Feb. 20, 2026. The F-22’s unique combination of stealth and maneuverability ensures that even in the vast, mountainous terrain of the Arctic, the U.S. maintains an uncontested advantage in the skies.
