f35c Britain is having these along with the normal ones to replace the harrier in the air force and navy alongside f35bs and also on the two new carriers HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales
Quite good. About average under mil thrust .... but its variable afterburners save a lot of fuel at high speed. Also doesn't suffer parasitic drag from external weapons which makes it quite efficient.
@pogpog28 thats actually the old prototype nozzle. The new nozzles are stealthy and a diverter system is built into the back of the turbine to eliminate its signature from the rear.
@spanishairsoftkiller since this is a joint project britain is getting these aswell and we have the eurofighter typhoon which is so advanced if the computers in it failed it would fall out of the sky that is a technical plane and also we are allies so we have planes in eachothers countries so we could use your planes on ops if we wanted just by asking
The GAU-8 is not that effective at killing tanks, it is designed to take out lightly armored AAA (shilka) because it has a slightly longer effective range than most AAA systems of the cold war era. Not often, if ever, would you see an A-10 strafe a main battle tank with the gun, pilots and personnel on the ground would much rather prefer use of the mavericks
I watched this bad boy take off in FWorth ... and its STOL characteristics are phenomenal! This was prior to the plane making its first hovering tests.
This plane hit the gas ... and was GONE! and airborne. I don't think I've ever seen a jet generate that much speed from a dead stop and get airborne quite like that... except in the movie "Firefox" (remember that cheesy Eastwood flick from the 80's).
@Ex0core the F-35 i do not think will be a replacement for the A-10, even though one of its roles is ground attack ( many planes have a ground attack role such as te F-15E ) the A-10 is a strait up tank killer, and there is nothing that can match it in that role in the US arsenal, its a multi-role fighter so it will serve many purposes, as cool as the f-35 is its not a flying tank like the A-10, but the future of the F-35 is unclear and is under threat of cancelation. most are grounded right now
@FXWorldBeater i would rely on actual battle field data and not simulations, the f-35 has never seen combat and will not see combat for some time, the A-10 has a long history as a very reliable and deadly weapons platform, GAU-8 is best tank killing weapon ever devised in my opinion. the US army understands this well, and there are not plans to replace the A-10 till at least 2028, the f-35 sounds nice its not going to replace the A-10
@phoboskitty "GAU-8 is best tank killing weapon ever devised in my opinion" The GAU forces the A-10 to be vulnerable at low level to engage tanks ... IMO that is not as effective as being able to destroy multiple tanks in one run from 30,000ft.
Numerous A-10's were lost in Iraq from shoulder mounted manpads, AA fire .... compare that to the attacks on libyan armor where the only aircraft downed was due to mechanical failures.
@FXWorldBeater ah yes this is true, but still they have so many issues more maintanence than pretty much any other plane, i hope the f-35 dose not go the way of the f-22, so far i think there are only 20?
@phoboskitty The USAF think the F-35 replace the A-10 is because of the range of A-10 is shorter than
f-35 and it is slower than the F-35, they want the agility of F-35 to kill tank but not the amour, damn, the A-10 score high in killing tank but the US want to replace them by a lower payload multirole fighter....
@Ex0core i doubt it will replace the A-10 the speed is not relevant, the whole point of the A-10 is that its slow and has a very small stall speed its like 40mph, the idea is that it can float over the battle field the f-35 is not specifically a tank killer the f-35 is a multi-role fighter that wil take the place of the f-16 in many cases, in future battles you will see both f-35's and A-10's in the skys, but specifically for anti-armor that is the domain of the A-10 and the AH-64,
@190998spencer "tbh hovering to foward flight is not implemented yet"
The aircraft can do it already. One of the F-35B test pilots said they will be testing vertical to forward flight this month or next prior to testing onboard the USS Wasp.
@SlyNicolai Not sure about this, but the harrier can do something like that i.e. use hovermode to break or turn sharply. This is a more complicated design, looks more fragile too. I honestly have no idea.
@CBlackjr Please forgive me for my english I'm from Russia, the translation is in Google. I meant that the airshow will soon show the PAK FA T-50. Thank you.
@Annofreak69 "These things have crappy payload" actually their payload is only small when its setup to fly stealthily.
After air superiority is acheived and the f-35 goes into bomb truck mode using all it external stores, its carries a massive loadout. Eg ... 34 SDB glide bombs with 100km + range and laser, gps, radar guidance which can engage moving vehicles autonomously. The best loadout for a flanker with similarly capable weapons is 6 missiles.
Wow! It's unbelievable! In the 21th century the plane is hovering in the air! That is a technological breakthrough! By the time this flying errr... (you name it!) went overbuget for 150%.
@BorshCaen "In the 21th century the plane is hovering in the air! That is a technological breakthrough"
The plane can literally land itself vertically. Has the most powerful fighter engine ever built and by far the best avionics suite ever built on a fighter. So you might say that it is indeed a technological breakthrough.
@VenVidiVici lol...I walked under one of the first generation Harriers at a military air museum just outside Edinburgh. Its a shame they have to mothball the Harrier. An amazing aircraft. Single engine with 4 thrusting nozzles. I know someone (who am not at liberty to say) who worked in the past in the defence aero-engine and with the RAF and he was also working with Joint Strike Fighter - it looks good but not as awesome as the Grumann Harrier
@MovieMad007 "it looks good but not as awesome as the Grumann Harrier"
You basing the opinion on looks, or something that matters like performance? Performance-wise the F-35 is a far far better aircraft in every single way.
@FXWorldBeater I'm sure it's written in promotional posters. As I see F-35 has the best engine and the best avionics but still doesn't work. Some countries left the project. Its crystal clear why they did it. No one wants to feed american defense companies taking a part in perspectiveless project. At least the jet fighter can hover. In the 21th century that is not bad though!
Lol, this should be good .... which countries? Name them. :)
"As I see F-35 has the best engine and the best avionics but still doesn't work" What doesn't work? The engine? The engine works fine ... its perfect.
You are aware that the f-35 is still in development testing aren't you ... the reason its not operational has nothing to do with problems, but the fact that testing was initially slow to get started.
@FXWorldBeater Many crafts were in develpment testing. And where are they now? Yep, they're nowhere. Danmark has decided to buy F-18 E/F instead of F-35 in the beginning of 2010. At least they spent only $100 million. Also Netherlands left the project (spent $600 mln). Loyal countries are the countries which spent too much money to leave and they have no choice but purshase of the fighter. Nice trap, guys! Good work.
@BorshCaen "Many crafts were in develpment testing. And where are they now? Yep, they're nowhere"
Maybe aircraft with 2, maybe 3 prototypes flying only. There are currently about 20 F-35's, 4 of those are production (will be in operation after the test program) fighters.
The Dutch never cancelled their purchase of the F-35, they are merely holding off buying until late in the decade. Meanwhile, new buyers such as Israel and Japan have jumped onboard, and most likely South Korea too.
@BorshCaen Netherlands have never even hinted at pulling out of the F-35 program. They cancelled their order for their test aircraft only because they believe the US testing program is sufficient for their needs (and they don't need to pay for the testing to be done).
So I suggest you go back and do your research a little better. :)
@BorshCaen " Danmark has decided to buy F-18 E/F instead of F-35 in the beginning of 2010"
Nope Denmark have not made a decision on their next fighter either. They are holding a competition between F-18 super, F-35 and Gripen.
The F-35 can do everything the other two aircraft can do, just better. There's a lot of stuff the other aircraft could never hope to do that the F-35 finds easy.
@FXWorldBeater Danmark didn't leave the project, they merely haven't made decision if they need F-35 comparing it to a different one. Why they have to stay at the project while they are not sure if they need it! Am I the only who noticed crash of logic? Dutch will order first jets in 2019. It's laughable. Empty promise. Even Turkey put F-35 on hold. No one needs this jet fighter. Putting on hold is just a polite pretext to cancel order in the future.
Have you forgotten that Iran won the Iraq war against US. UK. France...using weapons which were used in World War II. It is not the weapon smart ass, it's the heart to fight which simply means balls. Got it now?
@FXWorldBeater I was refering to Iran-Iraq war, which was back by western imperialist countries and lasted for 8 years. And your information about Oil hungry countries, is limited to what you hear from media. There are 2 governments in Iraq, run by the 2 groups, one in north and one in central. And they are not exactly puppet. They fought with Saddam as long as he was in power and now they both are in power. Except the troops, there is no other company there to take cheap oil. Go see youself.
@FXWorldBeater There is no Oil company working there. No body is taking cheap oil. That was the dream that didn't come true. You can not find a single American or European company working there. Reason, there is no security for the invaders. They said that this war pays for itself, meaning the oil, but they didn't go there for oil exactly. Look around, read and listen more carefully, you might find some other reasons.
@hameed710 "They said that this war pays for itself, meaning the oil, but they didn't go there for oil exactly. Look around, read and listen more carefully, you might find some other reasons."
I know it wasn't the ONLY reason. Strategic location for an attack on Iran (same as attacking afghanistan, although afghanistan is a good jump point for china too). Destabilisation of the arab nations .... bla bla. Oil was just a side benefit.
@ADDMOREMAPS not anywhere near the most expensive per unit cost. most expensive weapons program, yes ... thats because it is replacing 4 different aircraft across 3 services for US.
@jorgeneo560 not two jet engines.... just one. A lift fan in the front is connected to the main turbine by a drive shaft and clutch. Its different to the old YAK 141 which had 2 extra turbines in the front instead of a single fan.
@matty181190 "Looks good but looks so complicated that so much could break or go wrong" overall, less moving parts that legacy jets. Just looks complex because of all the doors.
@LOUISVART its not heavy ... not sure where u got that from.
As for the project, they've just started training the usaf pilots for it and there are now in excess of 15 F-35's flying .... not sure if you know it or not, but this jet is the US DoD's number 1 priority, no chance of being scrapped.
only think i don`t like to f-35 is, he is not so beautiful as f-22 (i know the look is not so important) ...f-35 for me is not beautiful :( ..f-22 is the coolest fighter jet i ever seen ( yf-23 was very cool to )
@Aircraftmechanical yeah its so fake. i dont know why the MILITARY is funding full production of this to replace the HARRIER, do you? oh wait, some imaginary ropes right? you people make me laugh
@COWCLAN1000 "gonna replace the harrier in the fleet air arm" not quite ... UK have changed their mind and will be going with the F-35C (carrier version) and will be modding their carriers with catapults.

Quite good. About average under mil thrust .... but its variable afterburners save a lot of fuel at high speed. Also doesn't suffer parasitic drag from external weapons which makes it quite efficient.

The GAU-8 is not that effective at killing tanks, it is designed to take out lightly armored AAA (shilka) because it has a slightly longer effective range than most AAA systems of the cold war era. Not often, if ever, would you see an A-10 strafe a main battle tank with the gun, pilots and personnel on the ground would much rather prefer use of the mavericks

I watched this bad boy take off in FWorth ... and its STOL characteristics are phenomenal! This was prior to the plane making its first hovering tests.
This plane hit the gas ... and was GONE! and airborne. I don't think I've ever seen a jet generate that much speed from a dead stop and get airborne quite like that... except in the movie "Firefox" (remember that cheesy Eastwood flick from the 80's).
Anyway - beautiful plane.

It's a giant leap back if the F-35 replace the A-10!!!!
Ex0core 6 months ago 12
@Ex0core the F-35 i do not think will be a replacement for the A-10, even though one of its roles is ground attack ( many planes have a ground attack role such as te F-15E ) the A-10 is a strait up tank killer, and there is nothing that can match it in that role in the US arsenal, its a multi-role fighter so it will serve many purposes, as cool as the f-35 is its not a flying tank like the A-10, but the future of the F-35 is unclear and is under threat of cancelation. most are grounded right now
phoboskitty 5 months ago
@phoboskitty "the A-10 is a strait up tank killer, and there is nothing that can match it in that role in the US arsenal"
How many tanks do you think an A-10 can kill in a sortie? Do you think it could could 32 tanks like the F-35 could?
Also, the F-35 can kill all 32 simultaneously and from 50+ miles away, unlike the A-10.
FXWorldBeater 5 months ago
@FXWorldBeater i would rely on actual battle field data and not simulations, the f-35 has never seen combat and will not see combat for some time, the A-10 has a long history as a very reliable and deadly weapons platform, GAU-8 is best tank killing weapon ever devised in my opinion. the US army understands this well, and there are not plans to replace the A-10 till at least 2028, the f-35 sounds nice its not going to replace the A-10
phoboskitty 5 months ago
@phoboskitty "GAU-8 is best tank killing weapon ever devised in my opinion" The GAU forces the A-10 to be vulnerable at low level to engage tanks ... IMO that is not as effective as being able to destroy multiple tanks in one run from 30,000ft.
Numerous A-10's were lost in Iraq from shoulder mounted manpads, AA fire .... compare that to the attacks on libyan armor where the only aircraft downed was due to mechanical failures.

@FXWorldBeater ah yes this is true, but still they have so many issues more maintanence than pretty much any other plane, i hope the f-35 dose not go the way of the f-22, so far i think there are only 20?
phoboskitty 5 months ago
@phoboskitty The USAF think the F-35 replace the A-10 is because of the range of A-10 is shorter than
f-35 and it is slower than the F-35, they want the agility of F-35 to kill tank but not the amour, damn, the A-10 score high in killing tank but the US want to replace them by a lower payload multirole fighter....
Ex0core 5 months ago
@Ex0core i doubt it will replace the A-10 the speed is not relevant, the whole point of the A-10 is that its slow and has a very small stall speed its like 40mph, the idea is that it can float over the battle field the f-35 is not specifically a tank killer the f-35 is a multi-role fighter that wil take the place of the f-16 in many cases, in future battles you will see both f-35's and A-10's in the skys, but specifically for anti-armor that is the domain of the A-10 and the AH-64,

Annofreak69 6 months ago
@Annofreak69 "These things have crappy payload" actually their payload is only small when its setup to fly stealthily.
After air superiority is acheived and the f-35 goes into bomb truck mode using all it external stores, its carries a massive loadout. Eg ... 34 SDB glide bombs with 100km + range and laser, gps, radar guidance which can engage moving vehicles autonomously. The best loadout for a flanker with similarly capable weapons is 6 missiles.

@FXWorldBeater I'm sure it's written in promotional posters. As I see F-35 has the best engine and the best avionics but still doesn't work. Some countries left the project.

In the 21th century that is not bad though!

You are aware that the f-35 is still in development testing aren't you ... the reason its not operational has nothing to do with problems, but the fact that testing was initially slow to get started.
FXWorldBeater 6 months ago
@FXWorldBeater Many crafts were in develpment testing. And where are they now? Yep, they're nowhere. Danmark has decided to buy F-18 E/F instead of F-35 in the beginning of 2010. At least they spent only $100 million. Also Netherlands left the project (spent $600 mln). Loyal countries are the countries which spent too much money to leave and they have no choice but purshase of the fighter. Nice trap, guys! Good work.
BorshCaen 6 months ago
@BorshCaen "Many crafts were in develpment testing. And where are they now? Yep, they're nowhere"
Maybe aircraft with 2, maybe 3 prototypes flying only. There are currently about 20 F-35's, 4 of those are production (will be in operation after the test program) fighters.
The Dutch never cancelled their purchase of the F-35, they are merely holding off buying until late in the decade. Meanwhile, new buyers such as Israel and Japan have jumped onboard, and most likely South Korea too.
FXWorldBeater 6 months ago
@BorshCaen Netherlands have never even hinted at pulling out of the F-35 program. They cancelled their order for their test aircraft only because they believe the US testing program is sufficient for their needs (and they don't need to pay for the testing to be done).
So I suggest you go back and do your research a little better. :)
FXWorldBeater 6 months ago
@BorshCaen " Danmark has decided to buy F-18 E/F instead of F-35 in the beginning of 2010"
Nope Denmark have not made a decision on their next fighter either. They are holding a competition between F-18 super, F-35 and Gripen.
The F-35 can do everything the other two aircraft can do, just better. There's a lot of stuff the other aircraft could never hope to do that the F-35 finds easy.
FXWorldBeater 6 months ago
@FXWorldBeater Danmark didn't leave the project, they merely haven't made decision if they need F-35 comparing it to a different one. Why they have to stay at the project while they are not sure if they need it! Am I the only who noticed crash of logic? Dutch will order first jets in 2019. It's laughable. Empty promise. Even Turkey put F-35 on hold. No one needs this jet fighter. Putting on hold is just a polite pretext to cancel order in the future.

@FXWorldBeater There is no Oil company working there. No body is taking cheap oil. That was the dream that didn't come true. You can not find a single American or European company working there.
