Westfield International Air Show showcases high-flying thrills and excitement.
The F-35 fighter jet was the star of the Westfield International Air Show, with crowds gathering to see the country's newest fighter jet. The Air National Guard's 104th Fighter Wing at Barnes will receive 18 of the F-35A Lightning fighter jets starting in late 2025 or early 2026 to replace the aging F-15 Eagles flown there since 2007. The F-35 Demonstration Team from the 388th Fighter Wing, Hill Air Force Base, also performed at the show. The F-35 is equipped with sophisticated technology, including nearly invisible cameras and a full 360-degree view for the pilot.
