Ever wonder how the F-35 handles extreme cold? ❄️

The fleet keeps growing. The mission keeps expanding.

And we’re still pushing the jet to new heights. #F35Pilots

Switzerland’s future F-35 fleet is coming together, and we're looking forward to flying their first F-35. 🇨🇭⚡

We’re in the cockpit — but the mission starts on the deck.

Every signal, every check, every movement counts.

It's a team connection that gets us airborne. #F35Pilots
