17 Squadron Retweeted Defense News@OC207Sqn talking a little bit more about the start of the transition to the UK for Lightning. @17SqnRAF will remain @EdwardsAFB for the forseable to continue to test UK F-35, its updates and weapons beyond IOC. #Lightning2018 #Futureairpower https://t.co/AGXE5Xhre9

Last week we flew our last tranche 2B Lightning, prior to its upgrade to become a 3F jet. F-35 will be continually upgraded with new hardware and software to maintain its status as a world class aircraft. #Lightning2018 #RAF #F35 #avgeek @royalairforce @ChiefofAirStaff @RoyalNavy

Here's archive of the 1st UK F-35B arriving at the 1st UK Sqn - 17 Sqn back in 2014. We've been busy over the last few years getting Lightning ready for the newly stood up 617 Sqn to fly back to the UK this summer!#Lightning2018 @RoyalAirForce @RoyalNavy @DefenceHQ @HMSQnlz

“The F-35 flight test program represents the most comprehensive, complex and rigorous developmental flight test program in aviation history,”.. An interesting insight into F35 developmental test activities which continue alongside our operational testing #Lightning2018 #F35B https://t.co/4Mybw8tEfO
