The 34th FS was first formed in October 1044 at Seymour-Johnson Field, North Carolina and has been deactivated and reactivated several times over the years. In 1954 the squadron was reactivated as the 34th Fighter-Day Squadron and finally in 1991 they became the 34th FS "Rude Rams" again. Over its lifetime the 34th has flown seven types of aircraft. In September 2015 the 34th FS/388th FW located at Hill AFB, Utah received their first two F-35A Lightning II (13-5071 and 13-5072) with another seventy expected over time. Designed to meet the US Military's requirement for a multi-role Joint Strike Fighter, the F-35 was first flown on December 15, 2006. This single-seat fighter is one of the most advanced aircraft of our time, said to be four times more effective at air-to-air combat and eight times more effective at air-to-ground combat than any other existing aircraft. It uses a low-maintenance stealth technology, and some versions have an innovative Lift System, which gives the F-35 vertical take-off and landing capabilities. The US plans to buy a total of 2,443 F-35s at a cost of $323 billion, which makes the F-35 the most expensive defense program in history. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
