    Two F-35 Lightning II aircrafts, assigned to the 354th Fighter Wing, fly in formation with a KC-135 Stratotanker, assigned to the 92nd Air Refueling Wing, during exercise Royal Flush over Alaska, May 4, 2024. During the second phase of the two-part exercise, KC-135 aircrews refueled F-35s to demonstrate aerial refueling capabilities and extend the mission range of combat-ready forces. Royal Flush was an Air Mobility Command readiness exercise that evaluated the ability to rapidly respond and execute mobility fundamentals and non-standard techniques to provide global mobility at a moment’s notice. Fairchild Air Force Base Airmen demonstrated the ability to rapidly deploy aircraft, cargo and personnel to an unfamiliar location and immediately resumed and sustained air refueling operations, unsupported for a significant period. This exercise demonstrated how AMC forces prepare, posture and present ready air mobility forces to support national security objectives. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Ryan Gomez)
