First-Ever F-35 Aggressor Squadron Stands Up at Nellis
June 10, 2022 | By Greg Hadley
More than three years after the Air Force first announced its intention to reactivate the 65th Aggressor Squadron with F-35 fighters, the unit formally stood up at Nellis Air Force Base, Nev., on June 9.
During the reactivation ceremony, the squadron also unveiled the first F-35s assigned to the unit, painted with a unique pattern of dark and light gray.
Images of the fighter quickly circulated on social media.
Prior to the ceremony, commander of Air Combat Command Gen. Mark D. Kelly flew an F-15E against the unit’s first assigned F-35, piloted by its new commander, Lt. Col. Brandon Nauta.
