An F-35A Lightning II takes off from Luke AFB, Arizona-56th Fighter Wing, July 17, 2017. F-35 basic course students took part in a two and a half week, four flight phase replicating a wartime environment designed to test their training and skills. The students will be the first ever to graduate from a course designed specifically to utilize the mission set of the F-35.
