You put in the work to become a pilot before you get to where you're flying an F35. I can speak from experience as I'm going through it now. You need to know how to do everything in the scenario that the "button" does not work
Cargo space is massive, but there's a catch. You have 2 large weapon bays, which can fit 1 AMRAAM and 1 Paveway guided bomb each; Your max. payload is an ample 2,600kg. However, the mounts only support weapons, which you will likely be throwing out of the compartments the moment you come across that one crazy neighbor.
I just downloaded the F35 in Flight Sim 2020 and I know it's only a computer sim, but it gives you the flavor of how it's operated and how complex it is. Very impressive. The power available from just one engine is incredible. Just flying, navigating and landing takes all my concentration. That doesn't include radar, weapons, chaff, flares, communicating with others, etc.
Imagine coming home to your son and he ask what do you do for living and you show him a picture of you next to your F-35B......life doesn't get much better than that
My favorite fighter is the F 22 Raptors I saw one in real life doing maneuver and flying low, I was blown away, the sound of those two engines and the moves it makes
You can’t “enlist” to be a pilot. I’m not sure if it’s the same for the navy and marine but I do know in the Air Force, you need to have a college degree and attend office training school to be a pilot

Today's pilots are not just pilots, they are so many other things. I can't imagine the workload on a modern fighter even with all the computers to help. Hats off to everyone involved in this amazing plane from designers to pilots.
Ignoring the scammer right above me (it appears he got removed) take off pretty much is automated as well as landing it's one of the big improvements over the Harrier
This pilot may says he just pushes a button, but he not telling you about the 100 decisions a minute he needs to make on any sortie and in the battle field if any one of those decisions were wrong it could result in serious consequences including death. Fifth Gen fighters is about creating an integrated battle field, linking all the assets together. The more automated and easy they can make the aircraft, the more the pilot can focus on his job which is to destroy enemy assets. In flight school the easy part is learning to fly the plane, most people could do that, the hard part is using the plane as a weapon and that's why its so hard to make the cut as a fighter pilot and why they put so much pressure on during training, even cutting good pilots, that don-t respond to the pressure. They don't want pilots to fly the plane they want a person who can operate an airborne weapon system under extreme condition including risk of death, while remaining calm and cognitive. Also its good to see, some of the more risky parts of a STOL aircraft is now automated, the Harrier was notoriously difficult to fly, with not a great safety record although its proved its worth in the Falkland's war.
@@honkhonk8009 Yes, I know, I prefer also to use the autpilot to precisely follow the localiser and glideslope while concentrating on power and IAS during an ILS approach and waiting for visibility to appear before reaching the minimums. But I digress, You are right, it is very difficult to even estimate vertical speed looking ouside and maintain accurate vertical position over a location without accurate cues.

We must ALWAYS give our Marines the best. My cousin, who severed in Vietnam, told me that his army unit made the decision that if they had to wait 5 min. for Air Force ground support or 20 for US Marine Corp ground support they would ALWAYS wait for Marine Corp ground support. He told me that the Air Force would fly over at the safest altitude and drop weapons in the area, they would never come low with guns. The Marine Corp however would come in at tree top and drop exactly where they were asked to and then they would loiter on station using guns until they were empty. The Marine Corp is who you want in a "Danger Close" situation.
I would advise you to check with soldiers and Marines from more current wars. USAF ground support has saved a boatload of groudpounders in the last few decades. Ever heard of Puff or the Warthog??? Marines operate neither.
My son in law was stationed at MCAS Beaufort. I was able to deep into the base with him and witness the F-35's taking off and landing. That was a good day.
Proud to have designed their insignia and provide those patch sets when VMFAT-501 stood up and were still waiting for the planes. Looking good WARLORDS! Semper Fi!

This was the first American forces documentary, where there was no bragging regarding their jobs and aircraft. These guys told it as it was so we all would appreciate this amazing aircraft. Thanks Guys
These pilots are seriously intelligent, educated people with the ability to think quickly, clearly and act correctly all while having forces placed on their bodies that almost none of us understand. Listen to their stories and learn. Who knows...maybe you could make the cut and have one of the best jobs on Earth. Maybe.
One of the most challenging aspect of becoming a fighter pilot to this day, I believe, remains to try to not weather out as quickly as possible by constantly withstanding all those g forces. I mean weighing 5 to 6 times your body weight...I’ve heard pilots say it’s like you’ve just climbed mountains in an hour and now all you want to do is sleep like a baby. No, it’s not easy at all.
Compared to the Harrier the F-35B has made vertical takeoff and short take off so so easy. All they really have to do is just push a button to get the engine to turn down and thrust to get the plane in the air. Compare that with the Harrier where you are constant using levers, and switches to get the plane vertical takeoff. The F-35B and it's electronics have made it so much easier for pilots.
The STOVL technology is amazing. I wonder if there’s been any technical issues with the vertical landing system or trying to decelerate and stop midair yet
Designing a bladed disk that can cope with a 250kt crosswind took some of the smartest people in British aviation over a decade to figure out. The Rolls-Royce LiftFan is 👌
Single seat Navy jets are kind of an aberration. F4, F14, A6, even the Super Hornets all had a second seat. I guess they figure with all the computer assistance the RIO isn't really needed anymore.
Wish my father had access to this kind of technology, he was a marine on the front lines of the Vietnam war. Got wounded twice, and was sent home, only to die in a motorcycle accident on the way to work. I know, it's ironic. And I'm now older than he was when he died. Even after he was sent home, everything within him wanted to go back. He loved being a marine. Also, I didn't know that it could land vertically. Very interesting.
I talked to 2 Harrier jet pilots at an air show, back in 1995. They were very smart, sharp, and highly educated. That hasn't changed much now. The planes are more expensive, though. The Marines don't trust a piece of machinery that costly to just any kid who wants to be a fighter pilot. I wanted to be one of those guys, when I was growing up. I realized that I wasn't made of "the right stuff" early on. You really do need to be good, or you could end up plowed deep somewhere, at 1200 mph.
Holy shit! The amount of research, work, and funding that goes into everything (I mean a little sensor that inflates the life vest automatically upon reaching the water...cmon!!!) is insane. This is where I realize that the US has one hell of an army, because everything is extremely well thought and meticulously planned. And to top that off, the amount of experience they have is insanely high...I mean, a third generation fighter pilot? There are whole countries younger than that...
OORAAAAH MARINES!!!! The Sister-Brotherhood of the Marine Corps is introduced to all Marines at the start of their tour.

Be alert, be safe on your next missions to terminate all targets on our next conflict. Salute to you devildogs in the sky... OORAAH!! Cpl. Cano Honorably Discharged Marine Corps Veteran
If you are wearing such a helmet and flying such a thing you are no more an ordinary person, you are basically a guardian of a country and all its people! You are basically a person with one of the biggest responsibilities on your shoulders!
Imagine all the training for these guys: College (usually USNA), Marine Boot Camp, regular Flight School, F35 Flight School. Any one of them can cut you from the team.
I have a family friend who was the lead project manager at Lockheed Martin. The few things they could tell me about the plane and helmet...so cool. Words can't describe the awesome things this plane is capable of doing.
Marine Corps aviators also go through infantry training before even arriving at Flight School in Pensacola. Although unlikely, they must be capable of taking charge of an infantry platoon if necessary. Same for supply officers.
Good point. The infantry school reinforces the connection between the air and ground units. Previous helmets had a camo cover as a nod to this- maybe can't do it with new high tech helmits?
@@rumrnr78 👍 yes, that would be so like Marines! To have aviators wear camo helmets. I was ground, so i didn't know that. But the instructors always stressed that everything, every USMC asset and every Marine existed to support the infantry.
While I still think the B model should have just had its own competition (the complexity of fitting V/STOL capability being one of the things that slowed the entire program,) this *is* quite a capable aircraft. It's set to sit in the middle of a lot of other tech being worked on - "Loyal wingman" drones, for instance. It's a flying, missile launching, bomb dropping data center.
It probably would've gotten cancelled. It would go along that lines of "The Marine core doesn't need a stealth jet in this threat environment". The raptor got cancelled. I think that only thing saved it was the fact that it was a package deal.
That is valuable training and the aircraft is so full of modern technology which makes their job easier as the pilot controls the aircraft. If I was a ground troop and was in need of help and seeing this airplane coming to your assistance would be so helpful until other help can arrive.
Pretty sure many countries' fighter pilots go through similar training too. Simulation, briefing, flight inspection, mission planning, actual flying, debrief etc.
Wow these technology's are really surprising me. Im really interested in jets and engineering, the technology costs alot because it takes a long time and takes time to get the stuff to build these things. I think the f-35b is my favorite now.
2:08 This b-roll request must have been cringe for the pilot. " Oh, can you walk to the plane with your helmet on and shades down?" ( Any other pilots watching were probably poking fun, lol. )

Compare that with the Harrier where you are constant using levers, and switches to get the plane vertical takeoff. The F-35B and it's electronics have made it so much easier for pilots.
The STOVL technology is amazing. I wonder if there’s been any technical issues with the vertical landing system or trying to decelerate and stop midair yet

fuel efficiency
Excess weight and decreased payload and fuel capacity.
Designing a bladed disk that can cope with a 250kt crosswind took some of the smartest people in British aviation over a decade to figure out. The Rolls-Royce LiftFan is 👌
The real “Top Guns” 👏🏼
It’s an honor to fly this Jet in Battlefield. Hoorah
And now suddenly the jaegers in pacific rim needing more than one pilot seems kinda plausible

But not the part where their brains need to sync.
Single seat Navy jets are kind of an aberration. F4, F14, A6, even the Super Hornets all had a second seat. I guess they figure with all the computer assistance the RIO isn't really needed anymore.
being able to fly those things must be one of the best feelings in the world
What rolls Royce did with this F35 really elevated an already fantastic engineering design, proud to have worked on these!
Kinda fascinating seeing a whole different side of the Marine Corps that’s we’re not exposed to
Wish my father had access to this kind of technology, he was a marine on the front lines of the Vietnam war. Got wounded twice, and was sent home, only to die in a motorcycle accident on the way to work. I know, it's ironic. And I'm now older than he was when he died. Even after he was sent home, everything within him wanted to go back. He loved being a marine. Also, I didn't know that it could land vertically. Very interesting.
marines never learn how to let go
@@tuffcruz956 watch your words. That is all I will say.
I talked to 2 Harrier jet pilots at an air show, back in 1995. They were very smart, sharp, and highly educated. That hasn't changed much now. The planes are more expensive, though. The Marines don't trust a piece of machinery that costly to just any kid who wants to be a fighter pilot. I wanted to be one of those guys, when I was growing up. I realized that I wasn't made of "the right stuff" early on. You really do need to be good, or you could end up plowed deep somewhere, at 1200 mph.
Rocky Plant, this is for you!!!! He was our Top Gun Badass in the family!!!
Seen These Planes Fly and theyre Amazing and the Roar, is pure awesome.
That's incredible how integrated the tech is with the helmet and plane. Pacific Rim isn't far off!!
Let build our jaeger
The guy at 3:17 is the chillest man in the world
Very sorry to hear the Prowler is being retired!
My dad flies the f35 super cool!
One day I hope to fly one of those F-35B's.
Holy shit! The amount of research, work, and funding that goes into everything (I mean a little sensor that inflates the life vest automatically upon reaching the water...cmon!!!) is insane. This is where I realize that the US has one hell of an army, because everything is extremely well thought and meticulously planned. And to top that off, the amount of experience they have is insanely high...I mean, a third generation fighter pilot? There are whole countries younger than that...
OORAAAAH MARINES!!!! The Sister-Brotherhood of the Marine Corps is introduced to all Marines at the start of their tour. Learning about a bond Marines carry throughout their service, and Marine veterans carry after they discharge from service. These few Marine pilots in this video is a part of many Marine pilots at all Marine bases throughout the world. Their missions during wartime are extremely dangerous, and they understand that. Their bravery to take on any mission, supercedes any level of danger. To you brave pilots, warriors above. I raise my glass to your steadfast courage. Be alert, be safe on your next missions to terminate all targets on our next conflict. Salute to you devildogs in the sky... OORAAH!!

If you are wearing such a helmet and flying such a thing you are no more an ordinary person, you are basically a guardian of a country and all its people! You are basically a person with one of the biggest responsibilities on your shoulders!
Imagine all the training for these guys: College (usually USNA), Marine Boot Camp, regular Flight School, F35 Flight School. Any one of them can cut you from the team.
I have a family friend who was the lead project manager at Lockheed Martin. The few things they could tell me about the plane and helmet...so cool. Words can't describe the awesome things this plane is capable of doing.
“Words can’t describe the awesome things this plane is capable of doing” Words literally describe what this plane can do. That’s what words are for.
Marine Corps aviators also go through infantry training before even arriving at Flight School in Pensacola. Although unlikely, they must be capable of taking charge of an infantry platoon if necessary. Same for supply officers.
Good point. The infantry school reinforces the connection between the air and ground units. Previous helmets had a camo cover as a nod to this- maybe can't do it with new high tech helmits?
@@rumrnr78 👍 yes, that would be so like Marines! To have aviators wear camo helmets. I was ground, so i didn't know that. But the instructors always stressed that everything, every USMC asset and every Marine existed to support the infantry.
"just pressed the button and it take of automatically"
I think i will be able to fly this jet if they told me which button to press😂😂😂
All of these pilots have such brilliant minds. So impressive. Thank you for protecting our freedom. 🇺🇸
So glad it's not just what you know but still who you know to make leaps and bounds.
Every military intelligence division in the world: write that down! WRITE THAT DOWN!
Write what down? How it takes off?
Some countries have already stolen the production plans and already have replicated this fighter
While I still think the B model should have just had its own competition (the complexity of fitting V/STOL capability being one of the things that slowed the entire program,) this *is* quite a capable aircraft. It's set to sit in the middle of a lot of other tech being worked on - "Loyal wingman" drones, for instance. It's a flying, missile launching, bomb dropping data center.
It probably would've gotten cancelled. It would go along that lines of "The Marine core doesn't need a stealth jet in this threat environment". The raptor got cancelled. I think that only thing saved it was the fact that it was a package deal.
The F-35B is a short takeoff and vertical landing aircraft, it can hover in the air thanks to its special rotating engine.
And what?
The engine doesn't rotate.
Fighter pilots are part a team that makes it safe to be a US citizen!!! Thank you for your Service !!
Top guys these pilots enjoyed finding out about the hours of study and training, they are special men and women who fly these aircraft
That is valuable training and the aircraft is so full of modern technology which makes their job easier as the pilot controls the aircraft. If I was a ground troop and was in need of help and seeing this airplane coming to your assistance would be so helpful until other help can arrive.
The amount they spend on training is amazing. I am not sure if other country is doing such in this level.
There isnt
Pretty sure many countries' fighter pilots go through similar training too. Simulation, briefing, flight inspection, mission planning, actual flying, debrief etc.
My gratitude and admiration for all you do!!!!
Take a good hard look Ruzzia, THIS is what a super power is capable of. Keep dreaming you’ll ever get a 3rd of this strength.
that vertical landing thing is SO COOL!
That’s awesome an entire family line of pilots.. 👍
Wow these technology's are really surprising me. Im really interested in jets and engineering, the technology costs alot because it takes a long time and takes time to get the stuff to build these things. I think the f-35b is my favorite now.
me when i was a kid: “draws myself in cockpit of f-35 and dream of becoming fighter jet pilot”
me after watching this video: *ok i’ll take it back*
NO water packets or multitool? Put an energy bar in your vest too! 🌊🍫
*Top gun comes out*
This video: RECOMMENDED
2:08 This b-roll request must have been cringe for the pilot.
" Oh, can you walk to the plane with your helmet on and shades down?"
( Any other pilots watching were probably poking fun, lol. )
One day the F-35 will prove how it is light years ahead of anything else in the sky
"F-35 will prove how it is light years ahead of anything else in the sky"
But… how will they bring it back from Alpha Centauri?
@Paul Foreskin I love seeing these American boot lickers praising the f-35 despite losing 1.4 trillion dollars. The f-35 has experienced many failures in systems and has caused many problems with the military and congress. Some many argue it's still being experimented with and it's still experimental but the su-57 is still an experimental aircraft and people are calling it the blunder of the century. Just because you're some hyper patriot doesn't mean you can spew western propaganda
@@datbeast109 Wrong. 16 countries are interested in buying F35. 11 already ordered. 900 aircrafts already delivered
@@datbeast109 says the person who can't tell a difference between the lifetime estimate of a program (in the case of the JSF [F-35] 50 years/2070) and the actual cost
@@GowthamNatarajanAI Canada needs them, the F-35 is so promising. It's going to be the best fighter jet out there.
$400,000 helmet made me actually spit out my drink
You could buy a modest central London apartment for that... 🤯
they over charge for everything
Its very expensive, why not
Yep, it's the most advanced HMD ever made, they claim.
@@ryanjonathanmartin3933 does it have better high offboresite stuff?
Forget the helmet, I love the glass shell - amazing visibility
thats pretty sick as someone whos scared of heights i admire them a lot damn they're fearless
Thank you to all veterans I hope your family is going well and I hope you are as well stay strong 💪 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
*Most of the time the F35 jet is undergoing upgrade and repairs!* thats a fact!
