Royal Australian Air Force Squadron Leader Andrew Jackson,

Royal Australian Air Force Squadron Leader Andrew Jackson, left, F-35 Lightning II student pilot, walks back to the 58th Fighter Squadron after completing his final flight at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla., April 23, 2015. Jackson made history as the first Australian pilot to fly in the F-35A. The fifth-generation aircraft will meet Australia’s future air combat and strike needs, providing a networked force-multiplier effect in terms of situational awareness and combat effectiveness.
