A Royal Australian Air Force F-35A Lightning II taxis on the flightline during Talisman Sabre 25 in Northern Territory, Australia, July 16, 2025. The F-35A was piloted by U.S. Air Force Maj. Colby “Burn” Kluesner, 388th Fighter Wing F-35A Lightning II evaluator pilot, as part of an international interfly between the RAAF, USAF, U.S. Marine Corps, and Royal Air Force. Talisman Sabre is the largest bilateral military exercise between Australia and the United States, that advances a safe and secure Indo-Pacific by strengthening relationships and interoperability among key allies and partners, while enhancing our collective capabilities to respond to a wide array of potential security concerns.
