Catching Yellow Jackets

A Navy EA-18G Growler, assigned to the Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 138, connects its J-Hook to an aircraft arresting system at Yokota Air Base, Japan, June 3, 2016. During an in-flight emergency, the pilot drops the J-Hook to the 1.25-inch steel cable of the AAS to assist the jet in rapidly decreasing its speed. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman David C.
