A Marine with the F-35B Lightning II detachment of Medium Marine Tiltrotor Squadron 262 (Reinforced) helps load an inert Guided Bomb Unit-12 Paveway onto an F-35B fighter atop the flight deck aboard the amphibious assault ship USS Wasp (LHD 1), Philippine Sea, Jan. 26, 2019. Naval aviators with the detachment fly the F-35B, which can carry an array of weapons, including guided bombs and missiles – the multirole fighter is the Marine Corps’ newest, most advanced attack jet and is purpose-built for Navy-Marine Corps amphibious operations. The 31st MEU, the Marine Corps’ only continuously forward-deployed MEU partnering with the Wasp Amphibious Ready Group, provides a flexible and lethal force ready to perform a wide range of military operations as the premier crisis response force in the Indo-Pacific region.
