    Fleet Readiness Center East transportation specialists move the first F-35B Lightning II aircraft inducted to undergo laser peening modifications into the laser peening facility. The laser peening procedure strengthens the aircraft’s frame without adding any additional material, and FRCE leaders expect the new workload to keep the $6 million, purpose-built facility engaged for several years.
