I like to think that it is the evolved offspring of an F/A-18 and F-16 with the F-22 teaching it how to be stealthy. High alpha, high turn rate fighter with stealth capabilities and still a good payload capacity with ridiculous power to weight. It is an amazingly capable aircraft, and being able to do what it does with no thrust vectoring is just a testament to its engineering. People that say it sucks because it isn't as fast as other fighters don't know just how little combat happens above Mach 1, and what really matters in a fight is how quickly you can accelerate rather than your top speed.
@@wruenvadam Well the F-35 is definetly not as fast or agile as older jets, but the fact that those jets might not know the F-35 os there before they get hit is the real game changer.

@@trenken I don't see how you can say that, its never been claimed a failure by anyone in govt. 2400 aircraft sold, cheaper than most competitive 4+ gen fighters while exceeding most if not all their capabilities, plenty of maneuverability if you've seen airshow footage or understand energy management and where it's used and why; its a technological marvel. It's also been a tech headache but no one could've predicted how far technology would advance and complicate in 10-15 years. It's more expensive than some predecessors but vastly more capable and several other countries think so; I advise you research it thoroughly.

Back in the early 1980’s in the eastern-med were humidity is low, a F14 Tomcat could compress enough air as it went balistic at super-sonic speed to turn into vapor. Supersonic fly-by you won’t see it on UA-cam.

I was a sub contractor at Lockheed Martin some years ago and saw these things being build like 10 ft away from me. Insane how tight cleanliness was when we were around the jets.
Yes! I had that same experience at the Ft Worth TX plant when LM first started building the F-22. At the time, they were still building the F-16, but at the far end of the hangar, there was a small area curtained off. Behind that curtain was a single, partially completed F-22. I was in the IT dept and I had to upgrade some software on one of the PCs behind that curtain. I was the only one back there and as I was leaving, I couldn't resist the temptation; I ran my hand along the surface of the left wing. I'm telling you........it didn't have the feel of any metal or any other material I've ever touched. It made the hair on the back of my neck stand up and in my head, I could hear the theme music/song to The X-Files.
@The_Meekling69 That is VERY close to what it felt like! Had a weird, textured, "dead" feel to it. Definitely didn't feel like metal. I didn't knock on it, but if I had, I am sure it wouldn't have made the typical sound you hear when you knock/tap on most metals.
@@cosmicskies6219 Boeing's museum in Seattle had some WWII fighters alongside an F-15. The F-15 dwarfed the WWII aircraft. Even more dramatic was the F-15 versus a Lockheed SR-71 in the museum. The SR-71 is friggin' HUGE.
Great camera work keeping the focus locked. A well-designed aircraft and one that showed just what it can do maneuver wise, especially in the hands of obviously intelligent pilots.
I just think with the cost of the F-35 we may as well have the Raptor which is much more capable. NOW I do love the Eagle and it is still a pretty awesome aircraft. F-35 my verdict is not in due to the cost for what we get in capabilities.
what are you talking about?..the cost of the plane has come way down per unit and this plane can do almost anything the raptor can and just about all of what an eagle can and more.
@@justacommenter4361 But we're going to sell a whole lot of Lighting IIs to our solid allies, that offsets a lot of cost. We will have many as well. With each added jet the unit cost decreases to a tolerable average cost per plane. The Raptor is a USAF only flagship, less than 200 made but they all stay with the Air Force.
I've worked on Frankenjet for the past 20 years.. She hauls the mail. But that P-51 is absolutely beautiful. Beautiful to the eyes and ears. A gorgeous aircraft.
Thanks for sharing ...What an amazing machine ...The capabilities and performance beats everything I've ever seen ... Astonishing can't wait to see it this year !!!
Yeah except it’s not combat ready or operational. This is. And the cost per unit is unknown (government speak for untold hundreds of millions). And this isn’t even meant to compete with the Su-57. The raptor is, and in every realistic combat scenario the raptor comes out on top, especially when in an IFR situation. The days of dogfighting are over, and Moscow seems to have forgotten this fact.

Saw this puppy live in 2017...OMG it nearly blew me over it was so powerful on its afterburner turns. If you’ve ever seen a harrier live you know how loud it is. The F-35? A bit louder still
Just looking at the fit and finish of the F-35 tells a lot. It is the most advanced technological machine in its designed, structure, and electronics. Its taken everything we have leaned from previous fighters and taken it to the next level. This includes the F-22. I believe the F-35 is superior in every way except power, speed, and very low speed maneuvering. This only makes sense being that the F-35 is made by the same manufacturer as the F-22 with 10 years newer technology. The difficulties and delays the program has experience are expected when you are pushing the technology to the limits. All of the hard work is paying off and its only going to get better over time. I believe that our adversaries are way behind us. Even though they have produced fighter that look very similar I don't believe they are nearly as capable. They are likely lacking far behind in the most important strength and that is the avionics. This is evidenced by their inability to produce super cruise capable engines to date, something we have achieved in 1997. Considering all of its capabilities it is a tremendous value when compared to legacy fighters.
21:50 Pilot: "It's a whole generational leap of technology forward. I flew the F-15 prior to this and, dude, it's a whole [step change further than that]... This is the futue of the Air Force right here."
@llamaha my former boss also an f15 aggressor sqd pilot he tells me the same and then some and he and I are in private so you can take your opinion and stow it elsewhere
Cool to watch the designers and builders of this amazing fighter endure all the criticism and dissing, while laughing under their breath, KNOWING what this thing can do:) Damn good job folks:)
It's in our favor to have everyone underestimating our aircraft. "But the F-35 fails to be able to bleeblah!" Engineer: "No, actually that's not a pro...." Sigint interrupts "... something we're working on resolving in the third software revisions." Siginti to engineer, whispered: "Dude, if everyone outside, you know, potential enemies, thinks our main aircraft can't chooch, let them think it can't chooch until AFTER we chooch with them!"
F22 has never worked since it was built current price operating cost 678 million per unit. It can't be fully serviced outside the JEW SA and needs 40 man hours of service for every hour of flight its OK its down from 50 hours. Many werd damaged some destroyed at their US base in a Storm as they had no pilots to fly them to a safe field. GO Team Jewmerica.
@@yfelwulf F-22 doesn't even make 50% operational readiness - WAY short of the 80% that is required! F-35 isn't even making 60%. F-35 literally can be hacked from the ground (multitude of cyber issues with it), and it's gun is so inaccurate as to be worthless. F-22 sheds it's supposed "stealth" coating rather easily (hence for sub-50% op status for the most part) - I believe the same issues exist for the F-35 also. F-22 withdrawn from operational theatres and sent home. Israeli F-35 barred by the Pentagoon from flying over Syria.

Ahh tastes great, more wars.. Guys, idc how cool that plane looks, there is nothing great about war and weapons of mass destruction. Humanity should boycott wars, and fight for rights instead before we lose all of em.. While they take our tax for wars they lie us into, that they created and funded for.. Governments don't support their people folks.. Never have and never will. It's time to wake up like France yellow vest movement, and like Iceland in 2010.
You have to defend yourself from the Federal Corporation ''government'' that's CIA (corporate department) was abducting and torturing THOUSANDS of US citizens for mind control research called Mk Ultra for DECADES, even during JFK said he'd destroy the CIA into a million pieces. But if Americans don't fight harder for their gun rights, you will lose them from this tyrannical gov. As the bible says in Ephesians 6:12: For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. They lied about the torpedo attack to get us into Vietnam. They lied to get us into Iraq. They have military civilian torture prisons in the middle east. They guard poppy fields for big Pharma, they take land and resources, they produce weapons of mass destruction to sell for profit, while wars are manufactured to sell weapons. THEY PROFIT FROM WAR. THEY, are the bankers that own the Federal Reserve and print the US dollar, control world economies and wars. I'm a Finnish/American, living in Finland and i'm a Finnish combat medic, but i'd never fight and die for my country, or any government. I'd protect my family with my life, not my government rich psychopaths. This may not be your everyday discussion, but it's important to wake up. God bless you all, i hope you wake up to the reality.
F35 and associated systems are lethal because they are smart and hard to detect...and now I guess we also see that it's also quite maneuverable. Great flying Capt. Olson and congrats to Lockheed Martin on your creation.
The heavier su-35 has a smaller turning radius, and the flat controlled corkscrew is really controlled. On this maneuver for the f-35 was scary... he really could have fallen.
Not really from a physics standpoint..... Were you talking about nostalgia? Otherwise, its just planes flying in formation. Same rules apply no offense.
@@Rhoadie1 Yes from a physics standpoint. Most jet aircraft of previous generations wouldn't generate enough lift at such a low altitude and speed, resulting in the jet falling out of the sky. Typically the top speed of a P51 is below the stall speed of a jet.
@@Douganchesner We don't know what the F-35's stall speed is, further landing speed is entirely different to maintaining flight at low altitude without stalling. Landing speed for most fighter jets is in the range of 130 - 140 knots or 155 - 160 mph and that F-35 isn't configured for landing, the gear is up.
The entire body of the F-35 is a lifting body. Hence the upward nose snout. The shape allows for extreme angles of attack and very slow flight without dropping out of the sky. Lifting bodies were first tested back in the 50's during the X-plane era.
solngv8 ?? The body of the a/c has always generated lift. Nothing new or sensational in that. This is a heavy sluggish slow reaction a/c. Compare with basically any other modern a/c. But then it’s not designed for dogfight. Luckily. It would loose. And Jesus, the tiptoeing ridiculous service guys, this is a prima-donna that needs heavy support at all times.
Okänd Soldat you are almost too stupid to be alive, you are commenting in a video of 22:22 minutes about the F-35 executing the combat maneuvers of the previous legacy aircraft that will replace, yet, you still saying that the plane effectively can't do that...
Yup. Same thing with the P-51, Spitfire, P-38, F-4, F-14, F-15, F-16, F/A-18, Su-27, F-22, etc... Every legendary fighter in the past had a design flaw or was heavily panned/criticized before it could really prove itself at some point.
Well, now just need a training battle with the SU-35 or SU-57. Russians every year offer to take part in their international war games AVIA DARTS. US refuses every year.
@Buro Dackel while long wave radar can *detect* stealth fighters, it will struggle to track them and certainly won't be getting anything close to a weapons lock. Meanwhile, the F-35 can launch a missile which will take out the radar site from 50+ miles away.
Kudos to great videography! I get to see them in the air, regularly, over my city, that is about 20 or so miles NorthEast of Truax Field, Madison, WI--which is where 20 of these jets will be placed through the year 2023.
@@derekchildress5 the f35 has better avionics and sensors and is better at air support. It's a strike fighter as opposed to an air supremecy fighter. The helmet is much more advanced as well. But I like your baby f22 comment it totally is
Derek Childress - I wouldn't call the F-35 a baby anything because it is an absolute BEAST at what it does. You have to remember that F-35 was built for a different role than the F-22. The F-22 was designed from the start with NO expense spared to be the greatest AIR SUPERIORITY fighter the world has ever seen and it succeeded at that. The F-35 comes out around 15 yrs later and was designed from the ground up to be a STRIKE FIGHTER, which means it's main purpose is to penetrate enemy air space and attack ground targets. That doesn't mean that it can't go out and dogfight by any means. Both aircraft have the most advanced avionics in the world, but the F-35 just has more and is better. The F-35 also acts as a mini AWACS and in some cases is better than normal AWACS aircraft because of how advanced it's technology is in it. The only real advantage the F-22 has over the F-35 is it's speed and maneuverability but the F-22 has that advantage over every fighter in the world lol.
It's one display I'd love to see this year!! But wont happen unfortunatly so I'll have to keep watching you'r video's instead!! which isnt a bad thing 😊😊
I had one low pass over my car this weekend (there is an airshow in town) seeing that thing float on a turn and accelerate barely over the treeline in front of me was amazing!
Great shots! All the best engineering and American know how at LM. On those crazy manuevers I kept wanting to pan out to get reference. Good vid, top rank!
I live in Yuma Arizona and work just outside the MCAS I get to see these bad boys live every day. Our building shakes with every take off and landing. Its great!
@@notrocketscience1950 Australia is in the process of buying a bunch of F-35s so it's totally possible (likely even) that an F-35 will do a flyover at the F1.
When considering design, functionality, suitability for purpose and visually pleasing to the layman and artist... it's probably one of the most all around beautifully designed air machines ever built by man...🙃
I remember delivering the RAAF's first FA 18's to Avalon near Melbourne back in June 1984 on a C-5 . Still got the pics. Picked up the aircraft at St. Louis and went from there to Honolulu then down to Sydney (Richmond was fogged in) and from there to Avalon RAAF, just ouside of Melbourne.
What an aeroplane. It's able to change direction and point the nose with the best of them. But the most impressive thing is the F35 ability to turn hold its energy in those high speed turns. Amazing!
What glory? Did you ever see a maneuverable plane perform at the air show? This is nothing compared to modern fighters. Take a stopwatch and time how long it takes F-35 to complete the full circle, than do that to Rafale, Typhoon or Su-35.
@@petar.banovac yes true , but itt's more important not to be detected than aerobatics, PLUS once bombs attached underneath theyr wings it's a different story since the balance is alot diferent whereas the f35 keeps better it's balance) the only flaw of f35 is it's single engine... if it flames out you go down same with f16 and mirage2000. I ll take the rafale over the f35 anyday (rafale is also stealthworthy but attachments ruin the stelth whereas the f35 can keep it internally)
@@alessiussa4184 F-35 (like any other stealth) is detectable by VHF band radar. And F-35 is the least stealthy stealth plane, even Uncle Sam admits it. The only problem is how to guide missiles towards it, since VHF band isn't accurate enough for that purpose. But knowing it's there is already half the work done. F-35 has nothing going for it except for stealth and sensors. Its performance is rather miserable - it's slow, poor climber and lazy turning fighter-bomber. Its payload capacity is also very low. With only 4 AIM-120s maximum it's going to have a hard time in an all-out war. Once it's out of missiles, it can't escape due to low maximum speed. That's not a problem for USA that usually fights with at least 10:1 numerical advantage. But a small country that operates 10 F-35s would suffer the numbers game IMO.
Petar Banovac The f-35 was never meant to be an air superiority fighter; therefore, if an f-35 gets in a dogfight, then something has gone horribly wrong. The purpose of the f-35 is mainly meant to be a manned weapons platform and an electronic warfare hub, none of these require it to dogfight. Leave the air dominance role to the f-22.
The A-10 requires an uncontested air space to operate. It's a sitting duck to anyone who wants to shoot it down. F-35 sucks, but at least can operate with impunity in contested air space.
Neightrix Prime To be honest, all close air support requires air superiority. F35s aint going to be flying in with wings full of bombs unless the F22’s/F15s/Hornets have cleared the sky first.
I was skeptical about this jet...for obvious reasons. But from everything I've seen? She's a winner. The bill will be insane...but it will be nice to have a few kicking around.
Try to convince those who hate it. At least you can see. I believed this jet on faith alone that our military and Lockheed made a winner more than a number of years ago.
We got cameras in cell phones in 2006.... and they were using them in early 80z.... u can imagine how much ahead they are.... it’s pretty scary... doesn’t it ? 👽👽
I read way down in the comments and nothing was said about the 3-ship formation with the Sky Raider and Mustang. Man, that gave me goosebumps and a smile watching that. And the F-35 pilot mingling with the spectators was pretty cool as well. Nice video, thanks for posting.
Especially a fantastically ugly plane! and fantastically crappy It has a design, and the maneuverability of a flying brick. It's like going back in the 50s ... The F 35 is less maneuverable than a Jumbo Jet. In this moment (critical failure) the F35 fall like blocks in a party of Tetris. LOL!
@@dodolfe57 Please share the secret of time travel, because clearly you are from a few hundred years in the future and are used to jumbo jets with over 9Gs instantaneous turn rate!
I like how the elevator wobbles a bit at the end of that sharp turn, dampening it perfectly. There's some tight computer control keeping that stable... I'm always fascinated by that side of fighter design.
You know what's really shocking? You go to an airshow and they show you those supposedly crazy tricks with the last generation fighters. And then a guy in an F-16 comes along and does the same stuff. This is a bit like car demos where they drift around corners. Just for dramatic purposes. In the end it's boom & zoom. You have to be faster and able to hit from a greater distance. Dogfights and tight turns are for movies.
But unless the f-16 is close enough to see the f-35 it would be shot down without even knowing the F-35 was there. F-22 rapters have taken on as many as 5 F-15s in mock combat and shot them all down without a loss That's the advantage stealth gives you. PS when every new generation of fighter is built they tell us that dog fighting is dead and every time it's proven not to be true. At least the F-35 and F-22 have a gun.
@@johnkendall6962 Agreed. As I said: Hitting from greater distances - that's the progress. As for the gun... are you hinting at the F-4? Dogfighting is dead as soon as the one with the greater range of fire can outrun the opponent.
@@YTOnceAgain I know but the US has a bad habit of putting stupid rules of engagement on it's pilots like no shooting until they visualize the target. Then it doesn't matter who has the longer range. With the speed of fighters today the difference between what can see on their radars and what they see visually is only seconds. Ideally the best way would be to shoot before even getting into the enemy's range but the best plans always fall apart soon as combat starts
Just went to the Edinburgh Airshow here in South Australia and the Vice did a way better show. The F-35A taxied nowhere near the crowds and also didn't do any pilot interaction afterwards. Also the 3 plane flyby with the older aircraft was brilliant in Vic..

Everyone forgets its stealth capabilities and how smart it is are the best weapon this jet possesses. Essentially it's a bomber capable of defending its self if necessary. Although there are three different variants
A very nice display of aerobatic skills by the Aussy Pilot, demonstrating that the F35A is just as agile and maneuverable as some of the world's best jet fighters. Pretty impressive was the maneuver around 11.15 where he climbed, looped, and then falling into a controlled spin which looked just like what the Russian fighters are well known for. When you consider that today's combat scenarios would take place beyond visual rang and stealth I think that Australia choosing the F35A Lightning 11 was a good move.

@@cosmicskies6219 Boeing's museum in Seattle had some WWII fighters alongside an F-15. The F-15 dwarfed the WWII aircraft. Even more dramatic was the F-15 versus a Lockheed SR-71 in the museum. The SR-71 is friggin' HUGE.
There are 2 imposters among use
Great camera work keeping the focus locked. A well-designed aircraft and one that showed just what it can do maneuver wise, especially in the hands of obviously intelligent pilots.
I was a little skeptical at first, like many were, however I've definitely come to appreciate the f35 just as much as jets like the raptor and eagle.
I just think with the cost of the F-35 we may as well have the Raptor which is much more capable. NOW I do love the Eagle and it is still a pretty awesome aircraft. F-35 my verdict is not in due to the cost for what we get in capabilities.
If the F-14 had as much funding and development as this thing, they would be flying into space.
Justa Commenter Undoubtedly the cost may not be worth the jet we got, only time will tell though.
what are you talking about?..the cost of the plane has come way down per unit and this plane can do almost anything the raptor can and just about all of what an eagle can and more.
@@justacommenter4361 But we're going to sell a whole lot of Lighting IIs to our solid allies, that offsets a lot of cost. We will have many as well. With each added jet the unit cost decreases to a tolerable average cost per plane. The Raptor is a USAF only flagship, less than 200 made but they all stay with the Air Force.
I've worked on Frankenjet for the past 20 years.. She hauls the mail. But that P-51 is absolutely beautiful. Beautiful to the eyes and ears. A gorgeous aircraft.

because they can flight? try to do a sharp turn with and u finish in pieces
the russian su-57 is better in maneuvers and stronger overall
Yeah except it’s not combat ready or operational. This is. And the cost per unit is unknown (government speak for untold hundreds of millions). And this isn’t even meant to compete with the Su-57. The raptor is, and in every realistic combat scenario the raptor comes out on top, especially when in an IFR situation. The days of dogfighting are over, and Moscow seems to have forgotten this fact.

Any idea of how many decibels we’re talking about?
Its not about aircraft itself its about the engine you talking about..the engine like other aircraft actually.
Just looking at the fit and finish of the F-35 tells a lot. It is the most advanced technological machine in its designed, structure, and electronics. Its taken everything we have leaned from previous fighters and taken it to the next level. This includes the F-22. I believe the F-35 is superior in every way except power, speed, and very low speed maneuvering. This only makes sense being that the F-35 is made by the same manufacturer as the F-22 with 10 years newer technology. The difficulties and delays the program has experience are expected when you are pushing the technology to the limits. All of the hard work is paying off and its only going to get better over time. I believe that our adversaries are way behind us. Even though they have produced fighter that look very similar I don't believe they are nearly as capable. They are likely lacking far behind in the most important strength and that is the avionics. This is evidenced by their inability to produce super cruise capable engines to date, something we have achieved in 1997. Considering all of its capabilities it is a tremendous value when compared to legacy fighters.
If you think fat Amy is better than the raptor than u don’t deserve to be talking about anything that requires basic iq

👍👍👍👍👍
Not really from a physics standpoint..... Were you talking about nostalgia? Otherwise, its just planes flying in formation. Same rules apply no offense.
@@Rhoadie1 Yes from a physics standpoint. Most jet aircraft of previous generations wouldn't generate enough lift at such a low altitude and speed, resulting in the jet falling out of the sky. Typically the top speed of a P51 is below the stall speed of a jet.
Ummm. You think a fighter jet’s stall speed is 400+ mph? Most fighter jets can fly fine at 200mph which is far below what a P-51 can do
@@Douganchesner We don't know what the F-35's stall speed is, further landing speed is entirely different to maintaining flight at low altitude without stalling. Landing speed for most fighter jets is in the range of 130 - 140 knots or 155 - 160 mph and that F-35 isn't configured for landing, the gear is up.
The entire body of the F-35 is a lifting body. Hence the upward nose snout. The shape allows for extreme angles of attack and very slow flight without dropping out of the sky. Lifting bodies were first tested back in the 50's during the X-plane era.
solngv8 ?? The body of the a/c has always generated lift. Nothing new or sensational in that. This is a heavy sluggish slow reaction a/c. Compare with basically any other modern a/c. But then it’s not designed for dogfight. Luckily. It would loose. And Jesus, the tiptoeing ridiculous service guys, this is a prima-donna that needs heavy support at all times.
Okänd Soldat you are almost too stupid to be alive, you are commenting in a video of 22:22 minutes about the F-35 executing the combat maneuvers of the previous legacy aircraft that will replace, yet, you still saying that the plane effectively can't do that...

Derek Childress - I wouldn't call the F-35 a baby anything because it is an absolute BEAST at what it does. You have to remember that F-35 was built for a different role than the F-22. The F-22 was designed from the start with NO expense spared to be the greatest AIR SUPERIORITY fighter the world has ever seen and it succeeded at that. The F-35 comes out around 15 yrs later and was designed from the ground up to be a STRIKE FIGHTER, which means it's main purpose is to penetrate enemy air space and attack ground targets. That doesn't mean that it can't go out and dogfight by any means. Both aircraft have the most advanced avionics in the world, but the F-35 just has more and is better. The F-35 also acts as a mini AWACS and in some cases is better than normal AWACS aircraft because of how advanced it's technology is in it. The only real advantage the F-22 has over the F-35 is it's speed and maneuverability but the F-22 has that advantage over every fighter in the world lol.

What an aeroplane. It's able to change direction and point the nose with the best of them. But the most impressive thing is the F35 ability to turn hold its energy in those high speed turns. Amazing!

What glory? Did you ever see a maneuverable plane perform at the air show? This is nothing compared to modern fighters. Take a stopwatch and time how long it takes F-35 to complete the full circle, than do that to Rafale, Typhoon or Su-35.

@@alessiussa4184 F-35 (like any other stealth) is detectable by VHF band radar. And F-35 is the least stealthy stealth plane, even Uncle Sam admits it. The only problem is how to guide missiles towards it, since VHF band isn't accurate enough for that purpose. But knowing it's there is already half the work done. F-35 has nothing going for it except for stealth and sensors. Its performance is rather miserable - it's slow, poor climber and lazy turning fighter-bomber. Its payload capacity is also very low. With only 4 AIM-120s maximum it's going to have a hard time in an all-out war. Once it's out of missiles, it can't escape due to low maximum speed. That's not a problem for USA that usually fights with at least 10:1 numerical advantage. But a small country that operates 10 F-35s would suffer the numbers game IMO.
@@petar.banovac VHF isn't so accurate as SHF so evasion is more real
Petar Banovac The f-35 was never meant to be an air superiority fighter; therefore, if an f-35 gets in a dogfight, then something has gone horribly wrong. The purpose of the f-35 is mainly meant to be a manned weapons platform and an electronic warfare hub, none of these require it to dogfight. Leave the air dominance role to the f-22.
Oh to be the pilot!!!!!
Awesome thanks for sharing
Beautiful plane. Still don't think I'd want it replacing the A-10 if I were on the ground fighting below it though.
You'd be crazy to want it replacing the A10.
The A-10 requires an uncontested air space to operate. It's a sitting duck to anyone who wants to shoot it down.
F-35 sucks, but at least can operate with impunity in contested air space.
I’d still like to know when the US Marines will operate it either stealthy or Supersonic as they will load it with wings full of dumb bombs.
Neightrix Prime To be honest, all close air support requires air superiority. F35s aint going to be flying in with wings full of bombs unless the F22’s/F15s/Hornets have cleared the sky first.

You know what's really shocking?
You go to an airshow and they show you those supposedly crazy tricks with the last generation fighters.
And then a guy in an F-16 comes along and does the same stuff.
This is a bit like car demos where they drift around corners. Just for dramatic purposes.
In the end it's boom & zoom. You have to be faster and able to hit from a greater distance. Dogfights and tight turns are for movies.
But unless the f-16 is close enough to see the f-35 it would be shot down without even knowing the F-35 was there. F-22 rapters have taken on as many as 5 F-15s in mock combat and shot them all down without a loss That's the advantage stealth gives you. PS when every new generation of fighter is built they tell us that dog fighting is dead and every time it's proven not to be true. At least the F-35 and F-22 have a gun.
@@johnkendall6962 Agreed. As I said: Hitting from greater distances - that's the progress. As for the gun... are you hinting at the F-4?
Dogfighting is dead as soon as the one with the greater range of fire can outrun the opponent.
@@YTOnceAgain I know but the US has a bad habit of putting stupid rules of engagement on it's pilots like no shooting until they visualize the target. Then it doesn't matter who has the longer range. With the speed of fighters today the difference between what can see on their radars and what they see visually is only seconds. Ideally the best way would be to shoot before even getting into the enemy's range but the best plans always fall apart soon as combat starts
Just went to the Edinburgh Airshow here in South Australia and the Vice did a way better show. The F-35A taxied nowhere near the crowds and also didn't do any pilot interaction afterwards. Also the 3 plane flyby with the older aircraft was brilliant in Vic..
It does not have much maneuverability, it is f-35 flying torch, it just knows how to fly from dead to death and turn
Uu
Such a jealous hater
@варфоломей ночь So you like to listed to Russian propaganda so be it
they can’t afford to build it and it has been a failure
I always love how start up and takeoff have really cool dance routines
Awesome video and great camera work !!! Thank you SH
You know, for a plane that's stirred up so much controversy the F35 performs quite well.
This is an airshow, not a combat mission.
F-35 LOOKS HELL and VERY POWERFUL .
US sheet,ha ha.SU-57 hero!
Awesome, nice that Finland did choose these planes too to replace our aging F-18 Hornets.
For long time I was certain they would be too expensive for us...glad to see I was wrong 😆
Definitely didn't look too happy flying with the old ladies. She wants to go fast!
Turbine jets flying with prop driven aircraft sometimes have to fly at near stall speeds to let the old ladies keep up with them.
Well I say that plane has some very nice handling characteristics...
@@Vkat696 this is far from a flying brick....... SOMEONE sounds like a jealous commie! You probably think the Su 57 is a better fighter than the F-35 Lighting 2 & F22 Raptor LMFAO! 🇺🇸#1 SUPERPOWER ON THE PLANET WITH THE MOST ADVANCED WEAPONS TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS EVER CREATED BY MANKIND!
@@Vkat696 you probably eat bricks, sniff glue and huff paint! Why else would you make such a dumbass comment? 💪🇺🇸
@@Vkat696 no matter how much you want your migs to be better than this, it won't happen
17:16 - don't ever tell me the F-35 is dog again. That break was sharp.
Norm T sure, if looks mattered at all. The F35 has already shown that it’s a beast.
Norm T looks don’t matter, u know what does? Efficiency
@Norm T how do you not find this plane beautiful?
@Norm T Yea, because appearance is what matters in a fight, right?
Everyone forgets its stealth capabilities and how smart it is are the best weapon this jet possesses. Essentially it's a bomber capable of defending its self if necessary. Although there are three different variants
A very nice display of aerobatic skills by the Aussy Pilot, demonstrating that the F35A is just as agile and maneuverable as some of the world's best jet fighters. Pretty impressive was the maneuver around 11.15 where he climbed, looped, and then falling into a controlled spin which looked just like what the Russian fighters are well known for. When you consider that today's combat scenarios would take place beyond visual rang and stealth I think that Australia choosing the F35A Lightning 11 was a good move.
They gave the F35 a 25MM gun just in case a little dog fighting would happen over some sh-- hole country.
