LUKE AIR FORCE BASE, Ariz.— An F-35 Lightning II, F-16 Fighting Falcon, F-15E Strike Eagle, and an A-10 Thunderbolt II fly in a four-ship formation over Arizona after being refueled by an Arizona Air National Guard KC-135 Stratotanker from the 161st Air Refueling Wing, June 3, 2021. The 944th Fighter Wing is unique in the fact that they train pilots on four different airframes, with two of them being geographically separated from the unit.
