A U.S. Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon assigned to the 14th Fighter Squadron, Misawa Air Base, Japan, connects its J-Hook to an aircraft arresting system at Yokota Air Base, Japan, Oct. 7, 2024. As a pilot lands on a runway during an in-flight emergency, the pilot will drop the J-Hook to the 1.25-inch steel cable of the AAS to assist the aircraft in rapidly decreasing its speed.
