Interoperability starts on the ground. 🌏

During Exercise Keen Sword 27, F-35 maintainers from Japan, Australia and the U.S. worked side by side, sharing expertise and strengthening interoperability across the global F-35 fleet. 🇯🇵🇦🇺🇺🇸

The future of airpower is a team effort.

Lockheed Martin Vectis™ is designed to team with the F-35, expanding what's possible through crewed-uncrewed teaming.

Lockheed Martin @LockheedMartin 4d

We are self-funding five Lockheed Martin Vectis™ collaborative combat aircraft (CCA).

Why? Our warfighters need survivable, affordable CCA capability now.

Months of hard work at Luke AFB have paid off! 🇧🇪⚡

Belgium's newly qualified F-35 pilots are back home and taking the next step in their training.

Belgian Air Force🇧🇪 @BeAirForce Oct 28

✈️ Back from Luke AFB, the first Belgian pilots to earn their F-35 Initial Qualification (IQ) without prior F-16 experience have returned to Belgium. 🇧🇪

A demanding journey, a new chapter, and one key lesson: "You can always count on your teammates."
