This air‑to‑air photograph shows a U.S. Air Force F‑35A Lightning II and a Boeing F‑15E Strike Eagle in banking formation flight at USAFE Days 2023. The underside view reveals aerodynamic contours of both jets. The F‑35A is powered by a Pratt & Whitney F135 afterburning turbofan, and the F‑15E by two Pratt & Whitney F100 afterburning turbofans. Visible vapour trails indicate airflow over wings during the maneuver.
