First F-35C Carrier Version Reports for Training Duty at Eglin
Although the F-35 is in much better shape now than it was a year ago, Lockheed Martin is “not declaring victory yet–it’s still a development program."
The first F-35C to join the combined U.S. training fleet arrived at Eglin AFB on June 22. It is the first of five carrier versions (CVs) that are due to be delivered there by year-end. They will be operated by VF-101, the U.S. Navy’s F-35C fleet replacement squadron, training both pilots and mechanics. (photo: Lockheed Martin)
