The exhaust of an F-35A Lightning II from the 125th Fighter Wing creates a heat wave as it taxis at Jacksonville Air National Guard Base, Florida, June 24, 2026, while another F-35 taxis in the background.
The 125th Fighter Wing provides 24/7 aerospace control and homeland defense for the southeastern United States. These Airmen work around the clock to protect our nation’s skies, always staying ready to deploy globally for combat or respond locally to natural disasters.
