The jet efflux from the F135-PW-100 turbofan adds to soaring afternoon temperatures and rising excitement as one of two F-35As taxi in at Yelahanka. Keenly awaited by many, the arrivals were met with much enthusiasm to finally see these fifth-generation fighters for the first time in India. This Lightning II is from 356th FS "Green Demons", 354th FW based at Eielson AFB. Over the next few days, the F-35A Demo Team would enthral the public with aerobatics at Aero India 2023.
