VIDEO: 301st Fighter Wing at NAS JRB Fort Worth Transitions to Cutting-Edge F-35A Lightning II Aircraft

The skies over Fort Worth witnessed a historical transition this past weekend, as the 301st Fighter Wing of the United States Air Force Reserve Command showcased their evolution at the NAS JRB Fort Worth. According to a social media post by the White Settlement Police Department, the highlight of the USAF Aircraft Arrival Ceremony was a video tracing the Wing’s history, from its early days at the former Carswell Air Force Base to the present-day 457th Fighter Squadron, affectionately known as the SPADS. The Wing’s storied journey exemplifies the continuous adaptation and commitment of US Airmen to defend the nation through various generations of aircraft.

With a nod to the past, the 301st Fighter Wing looks to the future as they prepare for a significant shift in their arsenal. As the ceremonial video reveals, the unit will transition from operating the F-16 Fighting Falcon to the more advanced F-35A Lightning II. This changeover marks the Wing as the first Air Force Reserve Command to host the F-35A bed-down location. Master Sgt. Jeremy Roman’s video offered attendees a glimpse into the storied legacy and the advanced future of the 301 FW’s aerial combat capabilities.

Demonstrating local support for the military unit, the White Settlement Police Department extended their respect and solidarity to the service members and the defense contractors. “We support our men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces,” the White Settlement Police Department posted. They further emphasized the importance of technological advancements in maintaining global peace, stating, “We also stand in solidarity with our Defense Contractors who provide the cutting edge technologies and airframes to ensure freedom is maintained and preserved around the globe.”
