U.S. Air Force F-22A Raptors assigned to the 27th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron along with Royal Australian Air Force F-35A Lightning IIs from No 75 Squadron and a KC-30A Multi Role Tanker Transport aircraft from No 33 Squadron, demonstrate a show of force by conducting an elephant walk at RAAF Base Tindal, Australia, July 31, 2024. Exercise Pitch Black showcases our capability to come together with our Allies and partners to synchronize efforts across a Joint, Combined Force. To deter aggression within the Indo-Pacific, our Air Forces must be ready and resilient in the face of future challenges and prepared to integrate with regional and global counterparts.
