Two U.S. Air Force F-35A Lighting IIs, two ROKAF F-35As and one U.S. Navy F-35C fly in formation during integration training as part of Freedom Shield 25, March 13, 2025. The participation of naval aircraft from the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson (CVN 70) brought a critical maritime element to the live-fly events of the exercise, enabling the full rehearsal of air component assets to achieve combatant commander priorities.
