🇺🇸 🤝 🇳🇴 

F-16 Fighting Falcons from the 148_fw in Duluth, Minnesota, recently flew with F-35 Lightning II aircraft from the 62nd Fighter Squadron at lukeafb, Arizona. But what made this training different than others? The F-35 aircraft were flown by members of the Royal Norwegian Air Force!

The Royal Norwegian Air Force pilots were training with the airnationalguard unit as part of a State Partnership Program visit to improve training and relationships among NATO members. Additionally, the aircraft were refueled in the air by a KC-135 Stratotanker thanks to the 128th Air Refueling Wing in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In the pictures above, you’ll see the aircraft flying over Lake Superior near Duluth on June 6, 2024.
