The 140th Golden Eagle Squadron was established in late 1969 and equipped with F-16A/B aircraft prior to receiving their first F-35I. The squadron operates from Nevatim AB long with the 116th “The Lions of the South” Squadron. The first two F-35Is arrived on December 12, 2016 and F-35I No. 15-5231 arrived on November 20, 2018.
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.
