Marine Corps Sgt. Robert Coates, an F-35B Lightning II maintainer, gives the thumbs up to Marine Capt. David Corkill piloting the joint strike fighter that he is cleared safe to resume his flying mission after hot refueling the aircraft. The F-35B and pilot were able to conduct a second training sortie after a quick ground refuel during the one-year anniversary of F-35B flying at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. Eglin is the heart of F-35 training worldwide for the Air Force, Marines, Navy and international partner operators and maintainers of the Lightning II. (U.S. Air Force photo/Maj. Karen Roganov)

Staff Sgt. Karl Muench Jr., of the 7th Component Maintenance Squadron, Dyess AFB,Texas, performs frequency adjustments to a B-1 Band 4-8 receiver mounted on a Radar and Electronic Warfare test station. The Band 4-8 Receiver recently underwent a B1-B Repair Network Integration proof of concept live test. The test demonstrated whether the repair network could re-optimize and balance capacities to meet a workload requirement of 15 serviceable assets within a 90- day period.

A Proteus aircraft flies over southern California Sept. 30 carrying the Global Hawk variant of the new, Multi-Platform Radar Technology Insertion Program radar. This is the first flight test of the state-of-the-art radar system, which will be incorporated onto the Global Hawk and, in a larger configuration, onto a wide-body technology demonstrator. The Proteus is a high-altitude aircraft similar in size to Global Hawk. (Courtesy Northrop Grumman Corp.)
