One of a pair of 'Ragin Bulls' Super Hornets that diverted to Lossiemouth following a precautionary diversion whilst operating from the USS Gerald R Ford (CVN-78) in the Orkney/Shetlands area. This aircraft departed later that evening whilst the second aircraft remained at Lossiemouth until the 26th August, departing following attention from maintenance personnel from the aircraft carrier.
