Marines prepare ordnance during Distributed STOVL Operations

description

Summary

Marines prepare ordnance during Distributed STOVL Operations (DSO) with Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 465 and Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 121 on Ie Shima island, Japan, Jan. 23, 2019. The rehearsal enabled CH-53E helicopters to re-fuel and re-arm F-35B Lightning II jets from a Forward Arming and Refueling Point (FARP), significantly improving the operational flexibility, survivability, and lethality of the F-35B. The FARP provided a hot refuel and hot reload for multiple aircraft with All Up Rounds (AUR), also known as a completely assembled weapon, giving pilots the ability to stay in the fight longer, and accomplish more missions in a shorter period of time from austere locations.
