The 65th Aggressor Squadron is assigned to the 57th Wing at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada. It currently flies the F-35A Lightning II, painted in camouflage schemes identical to those observed on Russian-manufactured aircraft, providing Air Combat Maneuvering training to USAF and other aviation forces in conjunction with Red Flag exercises.
Although the squadron does currently fly an F-35 in a Green Splinter scheme, this model asks the question: What might a Green Splinter Aggressor Squadron F-35A look like? Wearing a three-tone green splinter camouflage scheme, this model represents a ficticious Aggessor Squadron F-35A Lightning II.
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 2003-2026 The Flying Mule, Inc.
