U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. David Ornelas, left, from Texas and a combat videographer and Lance Cpl. Perri Wood, from Tennessee and a combat photographer both with 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing, capture photos and videos of AV-8B Harrier II aircraft with Marine Attack Squadron (VMA) 223, Marine Aircraft Group 14, 2nd MAW, off the coast of eastern North Carolina, May 15, 2026. The “sundown” of the AV-8B Harrier II, an iconic aircraft that has supported joint and Marine Corps operations for 40 years, also represents the dawn of a new era; it paves the way for 2nd MAW’s full transition to the F-35B and C Lightning II.
