The tail flash of a U.S. Air Force F-35A Lightning II aircraft assigned to the 308th Fighter Squadron displays the unit’s unique markings and tail code, LF, during a routine training flight over the Sonoran Desert, April 10, 2026. The 308th FS, known as the "Emerald Knights," is one of several squadrons at Luke Air Force Base dedicated to both U.S. and allied F-35 pilot training, including partnerships with nations like the Netherlands and Denmark. This training mission reinforces the foundational skills required to maintain advanced airpower and international interoperability. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Belinda Guachun)
