- Pilots from 617 Squadron have taken part in the US's largest training exercise of the year, with the training being described as "the pinnacle of combat air in the Western world".
The Dambusters, with their F-35 Lightning jets, have been working with American and Australian counterparts in Alaska as part of Exercise Northern Edge.
Wing Commander Stew Campbell, 617 Squadron, told Forces News the training in Alaska sees personnel "exercising at the pinnacle of combat air in the Western world in the large ranges available in Alaska".

UK, Australian, and US F-35s all automatically networked together, providing a common operating picture to Allied air, land, and sea forces is a game-changer.
Great work, Allies.
I can only imagine how that must have been visualise for them all flying up there through their headset helmets. I dearly wish I could experience this one day in person.
Combined and coordinated...🇺🇸🤝🇬🇧🤝🇦🇺
Absolutely 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇲
TBH: would have loved Japan to be involved too.
Exactly 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸
～⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🫡💪❤
And as a long-ex RAF pilot myself it makes me very proud to see my successors as involved as ever in this kind of global cooperation.
Respect I’m ex army and I know the role the Air arm does in protecting out skies above us .
As child, after seeing TOPGUN I dreamed about being a fighter pilot, and once I’d been to the fleet air am museum and learnt about the harrier jump jet, that was it
I was totally hooked on fighter planes
Unfortunately I never became a pilot but still so intrigued
Thanks to both of you guys for your service
617 squadron,Dambusters , fabulous 👍🇬🇧
I was going to rant against calling them "Dambusters" until I saw that the 617 badge motif is actually the broken dam with 3 red lightning bolts over it.
Totally awesome
Very proud to see our finest friend/ally, the U.K. and your best pilots flying with ours. Having AUS with us is a bonus. ♥
We stand United, Brother. Never divided.
We in the USA appreciate the hard work and capabilities our allies bring to the fight!
As an Aussie I say thank you to our American brothers and sisters for trusting us with your incredible technology and for protecting the free world! Or nuclear sub deal at about $200 billion is one of the biggest military investments we have ever made to help protect the world.
@@MusicalMemeologylooking forward to visiting my Aussie friends soon too 🇦🇺🤝🇺🇸
have fun guys love from the uk
IMPRESSIVE.
What an unstoppable tag team!,Love it 👍Bring on the Aukus Submarine fleet!!
🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸 💪 AUKUS FTW!
Excellent! Loads of F35s are taking part. I had a look at the Australian AF coverge too at Townsville.
Excellent work
I wonder how the training area in the Alaskan exercise compares to the Nordic fighter jet exercise Arctic Challenge Exercise (ACE), which will take place from the 29th of May to the 9th of June. Around 150 aircraft and 3000 persons from 14 countries are to train across the host countries Norway, Finland, and Sweden - mainly over the countries' northern regions.
Meanwhile, russia is begging north korea for weaponry🤣
Red Flag exercise is the best
@@everypitchcounts4875 It is,but its not in the arctic circle
@@whatdoesntkillyoumakesyous6707 red flag Alaska either is in the article circle or very close. There's more airspace and aircraft
Unbeatable combination!.....
US Navy EA-18G Growler electronic attack aircraft are also shown in this video.
Outstanding
As Russia's capabilities get duller, NATO and allies get sharper. If you do deterrence right, you don't have to fight a war.
Surprised the Typhoon was included seeing as the F16 and F18 where???
The Typhoon Force (only 5 front line squadrons and one joint squadron with the Qatar Emir Air Force) is rather busy at the moment with UK Air Security, Op SHADER, NATO Enhanced Air Policing missions, British Forces South Atlantic, as well as it’s own training to ensure that it’s personnel are trained and equipped to continue to meet these tasks. Whilst our our combat air aircraft (Typhoon and Lightning) are incredibly capable platforms, they can only be in one place at one time.
Anglo Saxon supremacy 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇦🇺
What supremacy? China/BRIC/SCO are taking over. Theres nothing the Saxons can do about it.
farzanas not included
just joking buddy you and me both
I can rent out my flat to anyone who wants a first class view of fighter jets, i can watch them ( and certainly hear them) from my living room. I am right next to Lakenheath.
Hopefully see you at Pitch Black too.

Why is the first comment a bot....
Cause they haven't taken there medicine today😊
Must be good bait when you hook a wumao that quick. Right? 😁
No Canada because they don’t have 5th gen fighters!
Not yet.
They're buying 88 of them 💸💸💸
And giving the specs to china….
@K. T. No need to. The Chinese already stole info directly from US.
Proper job.
See, Russia dont do this. While China does a little better than Russia, they still don't come close to this kind of scale of exercise. 5Eye4Eva!
Three eyes at present. Canada and NZ are non-starters ie no F-35's
Keep up the good work chaps. TallyHo

F-35s flying around, collecting data, and sending it to big brother f-22 to go into FAFO mode lol
AUKUS, AUKUS, AUKUS, oy oy oy
oi oi oi
Pip Pip!
Nobody has said that in Britain since 1867.
Great to see the UK working well with Australia shame New Zealand are so weak to joint the club and sit on the side like always until they need us.
Stop talking nonsense.
Can't remember NZ needing us, but they've certainly fought with us when needed.
Nutter
Dambusters don’t sound as good as when this video was posted…
RCAF MIA
Great video love forces news keep up the good work my friends
Getting ready for Order 66, by the Emperor. Troopers are already set.
*The BBC described it as the "infamous Dam Busters" raid. Perhaps because of the dog's name?*
no because it also killed alot of people and devastated a massive area of land . Was an incredible raid and had to be done but it was war , people died .
@ANGLO-SAXON The BBC have a bit of a problem with White people and their accomplishments.
Have you noticed?
Where are Denmark, Poland an Germany???
They’re in the middle-part of Europe. (Refer to an atlas for their exact location).
@@AtheistOrphan [nods in agreement]
Japan?
@Steiner my apologise my fried, for leaving you guy out.
An Floor Jensen if she got the chance to fly one. Ha ha.
Ave a great wkend, all the best from UK.
This is why China, Russia and Iran don't scare me. They are so far behind. plus our European pals .. and unfortunately for the Chinese they have got Japan pumped.
finally lol... can i say it feels like it may officially be nearly useful the f-35, i knew it'd get there in the end!
✈✈✈
Had a thought the other day the good old dambusters would come back into play .🤔 Wonder if the bouncing bomb plays it's part again
I thought they was pit out of action after attacking dresden in Germany killing over 200,000 mainly civilians? I think they was used to drop rashions to the Dutch
Putin has left the chat
Anything new on the F-35's availability stats? Last I saw, it was only available for all missions about 30% of the time.
Hugh... hugh.... hugh.....Including the price tags for fuel and maintenance of course.... How much was it again for flying 1 hour with an F 22 ? The flipside of that unfortunately more than ever needed defense.
Without defence nothing else matters. Australia is a massive mine china would just love to invade.
Unbeatable 😊
F35 - the Citroën 2CV of military aviation…😂
The White House and Pentagon says old F-16s are too complex and too vulnerable to base within 1000 km of Russia (i.e. in Ukraine). What does that say about viability of the F-35 in any defensive war against Russia or China? Is the F-35 only viable in wars of choice against minor countries? Should Central and Eastern European countries and our Pacific allies be buying SAAB Grippen instead?
Loose the music so we can hear what's being said 👎👎👎
What 5th gen fighters? Matter of fact where are the fighters?
FA-22 Raptors and F-35 A/C Lightning II's are 5th gens.
@@corruptcape2776 not disagreeing that's the technical definition but grouping the F-22 and F-35 in the same generation always seems absurd to me. If the 22 is g5 the F-35 has to be at least a 5.5.
@@streaky81 The F-22 is 50 years ahead of its time. It really is the best.
@@corruptcape2776 so then the F-35 is 70 years ahead of it's time. The F-22 represents the end of an old way of the use of air power, the F-35 is the last rational pilot-in-a-seat way of fighting an air war.
Thumb up because at least I got your joke. (to the rest of you: stealth, geddit?)
What's the UK's single naval strike wing
doing fannying around far from the carriers
they're supposed to be embarked on??
They'll fly from the most appropriate base, be it land or sea.
Training
Alaska. .......On 20 miles from Russia. ....Just a coincidence. ......
i do wish you would just tell the truth and say ww3 has already begun
WW III was the Cold War which you apparently missed participating in. Some of us have been fighting WW IV for a few decades already.
