In this head‑on air‑to‑air photograph from USAFE Days 2023, a Lockheed Martin F‑35A Lightning II of the U.S. Air Force displays characteristic vapour trails while flying in precision formation. The F‑35A is a single‑engine, stealth multirole fighter equipped with advanced sensor fusion, a 25 mm GAU‑22/A cannon, and provisions for air‑to‑air missiles. The Pratt & Whitney F135‑PW‑100 engine delivers thrust for supersonic performance and mission versatility.
