One of the UK's first F-35B Lightning II aircraft takes off from Eglin Air Force Base, Florida. Personnel from the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force were familiarising themselves with the F-35 processes and procedures both in the air and on the ground at the US Air Force Base. The F-35B Lightning II will place the UK at the forefront of fighter technology, giving the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force a true multi-role all weather, day and night capability, able to operate from well-established land bases, deployed locations or the Queen Elizabeth Class Aircraft Carriers. *Organization: RAF *Object Name: DMC-14-145-025 *Category: MOD *Supplemental Categories: Equipment, Aircraft, Offensive, F-35 *Keywords: F-35, Eglin, Royal Air Force, F-35B, Royal Navy, Equipment, Aircraft, Joint Combat Aircraft, JCA, Joint Strike Fighter, JSF, Lockheed Martin, F35, Lightning *Country: USA
