    F-35 Lightning II Pax River ITF   

    Maintainers from the F-35 Patuxent River Integrated Test Force perform the last step of a Before Operation Servicing inspection on an F-35B Lightning II in the hangar of Japan’s Izumo-class multi-functional destroyer JS Kaga (DDH-184) Oct. 21, 2024. The maintainers, part of a broader Pax ITF test team, are embarked on the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force’s largest ship to execute developmental test to certify that recent modifications will support fixed-wing operations from the destroyer. Maintenance is a cornerstone of the Pax ITF’s ability to effectively conduct safe, secure, and efficient flight test.
