The 388th and Reserve 419fw conducted a Combat Power Exercise with 52 aircraft HAFB, Utah, today.

The exercise, which was planned for months, demonstrated their ability to employ a large force of F-35As.

Today we launched about 50 F-35s in rapid succession.
Part of a long-planned combat power exercise with 388fw,
we pushed the boundaries and tested our Airmen’s ability to deploy
the f35 en masse.

Wow, impressive!
Perhaps sometime in the future the Royal Netherlands Air Force may have as many J-birds as pictured here together... Theoretically at least. Maybe...
