Luke AFB Thunderbolt – Digital and Print Publication for Luke AFB, serving the West Valley region of Phoenix, AZ. An AerotechNews.com Publication. – February 2022
Hello, everyone and welcome to the February 2022 issue of Luke AFB Thunderbolt! Student pilots from the 63rd Fighter Squadron recently pushed the boundaries of F-35A Lightning II pilot training, completing a mission in which the aircraft survived a contested environment and gained access to a forward armament refueling point. “This mission shows that the F-35 is strategically capable of fighting its way through heavily contested airspace in a challenging and dynamic environment, rearming, refueling and proceeding even further without the need for support from more vulnerable aircraft,” said Lt. Col. Joe Goldsworthy, 56th FW chief of safety. This is an important milestone in the F-35 pilot training program and we have the story, and much more news, in this month’s issue of Luke AFB Thunderbolt.
