An F-22 Raptor refuels at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, May 10, 2018. The F-22’s combination of stealth, supercruise, maneuverability, and integrated avionics, coupled with improved supportability, represents an exponential leap in warfighting capabilities. The Raptor performs both air-to-air and air-to-ground missions allowing full realization of operational concepts vital to the 21st century Air Force. (Photo by Senior Airman Curt Beach)
An Alaska Air National Guard C-17 Globemaster III assigned to the 176th Wing takes off from Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, May 10, 2018. The C-17 Globemaster III is the newest, most flexible cargo aircraft to enter the airlift force. It’s capable of rapid strategic delivery of troops and all types of cargo to main operating bases or directly to forward bases in the deployment area. (Photo by Senior Airman Curt Beach)

An F-22 Raptor soars through the sky above Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, May 10, 2018. The F-22, a critical component of the Global Strike Task Force, is designed to project air dominance, rapidly at great distances and defeat threats to the U.S. and its allies. The F-22 cannot be matched by any known or projected fighter aircraft. (Photo by Senior Airman Curt Beach)

A C-130 Hercules approaches the flightline for landing at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, May 10, 2018. The C-130 can accommodate a wide variety of oversized cargo, including utility helicopters and six-wheeled armored vehicles to standard palletized cargo and passengers. In an aerial delivery role, it can airdrop loads up to 42,000 pounds or use its high-flotation landing gear to land and deliver cargo on rough, dirt strips. (Photo by Senior Airman Curt Beach)
