JOE FOSS FIELD, S.D. - An F-16 Fighting Falcon from the 114th Fighter Wing launches into night flying operations with the afterburner engaged at Joe Foss Field, S.D., Aug. 21, 2025. The afterburner provides a significant thrust boost by injecting fuel directly into the exhaust stream, enabling rapid acceleration and high-speed performance essential for combat operations.
