A crew chief with the 421st Fighter Generation Squadron, prepares an F-35 Lightning II for refueling at Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri, April 5, 2022. The fifth-generation fighter aircraft will integrate with the B-1 Lancer, B-2 Spirit and B-52 Stratofortress as part of Exercise Agile Tiger. Exercise Agile Tiger gives us the opportunity to practice operational unpredictability, while assuring our partners and Allies that we are postured to execute nuclear operations and global strike anytime, anywhere.
