T-7A Red Hawk paint scheme designer named Air Force 2024 Fighter Flight Lead of the Year

A T-7A Red Hawk from the 416th Flight Test Squadron, F-35A from the Alabama Air National Guard and P-51D Mustang from the Palm Springs Air and Space Museum fly in formation over Edwards Air Force Base after the 2025 Red Tail Rendezvous event. To honor the rich history of the Tuskegee Airmen, reinforce warfighter standards and resiliency, and amplify Airman morale, the 412th Test Wing hosted a special afternoon during the State of California's formal Tuskegee Airmen remembrance day on March 7. In a beneficial series of requirements, the F-35A and P-51D aircraft were able to take advantage of a T-7A flying a test mission during departure to create this unique formation, while the event provided pilots with the Alabama Air National Guard key cross-country training hours. A flight test aerial photographer was also scheduled for a proficiency mission the same afternoon, allowing this rare moment to be captured visually. The T-7A Red Hawk sports red tails as homage to the Tuskegee Airmen. (Air Force photo by Christian Turner)
