    U.S. Marines and U.K. Royal Air Force members offload a Strikemaster missile system from a U.K. Royal Air Force A400M Atlas C.1 aircraft on Jan Mayen Island, Norway, Aug. 31, 2026, in support of Operation Atlantic City 26. The offload enhanced combined operational readiness and rapid-response posture, ensuring NATO can quickly integrate critical assets across remote and austere terrain in the High North. Atlantic City 26 is a Norwegian-led trilateral readiness initiative with the United Kingdom and United States designed to develop and demonstrate expeditionary advanced base capabilities and validate combined fires, maritime domain awareness, and sea denial to reinforce the security and stability of the High North. Jan Mayen is sovereign Norwegian territory in an isolated part of the Norwegian Sea, approximately 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) from mainland Norway. At the same time, the island occupies an important geostrategic position north of the Greenford-Iceland-U.K. gap, an area of water strategically significant to the defense of the U.S. homeland and northern Europe.

    A Royal Air Force Airbus A400M Atlas military transport aircraft is taxiing or stationary on a remote, unpaved or minimally developed airstrip. The terrain is characterized by red-brown volcanic soil and dark lava rock formations, suggesting a remote island location. The overcast sky and rugged landscape indicate an austere or expeditionary operating environment.
    A Royal Air Force Airbus A400M Atlas military transport aircraft, marked with serial number 420, is taxiing on a dark volcanic/dirt runway in an overcast, remote coastal environment. The four turboprop engines with eight-bladed propellers are spinning, indicated by motion blur on the propeller blades. The setting appears to be a remote airstrip, possibly on a volcanic island given the dark terrain and rocky landscape visible in the background.
    A Royal Air Force Airbus A400M Atlas military transport aircraft is parked on a remote, unpaved airstrip with dark volcanic terrain. The setting appears to be a remote island or polar location, with rugged hills, overcast skies, and minimal infrastructure visible. Several shipping containers and a small hangar building are present in the background.

The landscape features dark volcanic soil and green moss-covered hills in the background.
    A group of armed soldiers in camouflage uniforms are advancing along a dirt track in a volcanic, lava-field terrain. Behind them, a large military turboprop transport aircraft — consistent with an Airbus A400M Atlas — is parked on what appears to be a remote airstrip. The scene suggests a military exercise or tactical deployment operation in a Nordic or volcanic island environment.
    A military armored vehicle, appearing to be an olive/military green protected mobility vehicle, is parked on dark volcanic terrain with patches of yellow-green moss or lichen. In the foreground, a blurred figure wearing military gear and a helmet is partially visible. The setting appears to be a volcanic landscape, consistent with Icelandic terrain.
    A green military protected mobility vehicle, visibly labeled 'Bushmaster' and 'Stingmaster', is being offloaded from the rear ramp of a large military transport aircraft. The aircraft displays a roundel consistent with the Royal Air Force (RAF) on its tail fin. The scene takes place on a red-dirt airstrip in a mountainous, overcast environment.
