A U.S. Navy pilot climbs a ladder into a F/A-18E Super Hornet aircraft assigned to Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 31, during Weapons System Evaluation Program-East 24.12 at Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida, Sept. 17, 2024. WSEP-East affords pilots the chance to fire live rounds and launch live missiles at aerial and ground targets, serving as a qualifying step for deployment readiness. Evaluating these capabilities accelerates readiness and postures the force for future operations. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Zachary Nordheim)
