In this head‑on, air‑to‑air photograph at USAFE Days 2023, a U.S. Air Force Lockheed Martin F‑35A Lightning II multirole fighter flies in close formation. The single‑engine aircraft, powered by a Pratt & Whitney F135‑PW‑100 afterburning turbofan engine, exhibits stealth shaping that reduces radar cross‑section. The demonstration highlights aerodynamic control, avionics integration and mission versatility for modern air operations.
