First Red Flag Alaska outing for Hill AFB F-35s
The 4th Fighter Squadron is representing Hill Air Force Base’s 388th and Reserve 419th Fighter Wings at Red Flag Alaska 20-3 that kicks off Aug. 1.
This will be the first time the F-35 assigned to Hill is participating at the air combat training exercise. 12 aircraft along with nearly 200 airmen are making the trip to Eielson Air Force Base.
They will stay for an additional week after the exercise ends to conduct air-to-air combat training with F-22s and F-16s in smaller, more limited scenarios.
This training opportunity will also allow the 4th FS to integrate with F-35As from 354th Fighter Wing at Eielson.
