Marines from Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 262 and Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 269 executed a spider forward arming and refueling point mission in Okinawa, Japan, October 28, 2015. The FARP mission facilitates small aircraft to operate longer, resupply in a shorter time frame and provide close air support more frequently. The event was part of Blue Chromite 2016. Because Blue Chromite is an amphibious training exercise that draws primarily from III Marine Expeditionary Force's training resources in Okinawa, participating units maintain a forward-deployed posture while eliminating travel costs. VMM-262 is with Marine Aircraft Group 36, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force. HMLA-269 is with MAG 36 under the Unit Deployment Program. Also available in high definition.

U.S. Marines with Headquarters and Headquarters Squadron, Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Futenma participated in flight arrestment training with an F/A-18 Hornet at MCAS Futenma, Okinawa, Japan, Jan. 09, 2015. The equipment used in arrested landings help aircraft land within a limited distance, such as on an aircraft carrier or landing strip. MCAS Futenma does not usually take flight arrestments from jet aircraft so this made today’s event a valuable training opportunity for both the Marines on the ground and the pilot of the F/A-18 Hornet.
