The 466th FS “Diamondbacks” are assigned to the 419th FW at Hill AFB in Utah. The 419th FW is one of forty USAF Reserve units and is the only AFRC (Air Force Reserve Command) unit in Utah. In September 2015 Hill AFB received the first F-35 Lightning II and on December 10, 2018 F-35A #15-5194 was delivered to the 466th FS of the 419th FW. The 419th FW borrows aircraft on an as-needed basis from the 34th FS “Rams”, 388th FW, which they share Hill AFB with.

The Lockheed F-35 Lightning II is a fifth generation multi-role fighter aircraft that combines radar evading stealth technology with supersonic speed and extreme agility. The three variants of the Lightning II are the F-35A, B, and C. The F-35A is the conventional takeoff and landing (CTOL) variant. It features two internal weapons bays and six external hardpoints for mounting a variety of weapons under the wings plus an internal 25 mm cannon. The F-35B is the short takeoff and vertical landing (STOVL) variant while the F-35C is the carrier-based variant. It was designed to replace the U.S. Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon, U.S. Navy F/A-18 Hornet and the U.S. Marine Corps F/A-18 Hornet and AV-8 Harrier II.

The F-35 was first flown on December 15, 2006 and is scheduled to enter operational service in the coming years with the United States military and the air forces of several other nations that were partners in the development cost of the aircraft.
