The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is a fifth-generation, single-seat, single-engine stealth multirole fighter that can perform close air support, tactical bombing, and air defense missions. The F-35 has three different models; one is a conventional takeoff and landing variant, the second is a short take off and vertical-landing variant, and the third is a carrier-based variant.

The F-35 is descended from the X-35, the product of the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program. Its development is being principally funded by the United States, with the United Kingdom and other partner governments providing additional funding. It is being designed and built by an aerospace industry team led by Lockheed Martin with Northrop Grumman and BAE Systems as major partners. Demonstrator aircraft flew in 2000, with the first flight on 15 December 2006.

The United States intends to buy a total of 2,443 aircraft for an estimated US$323 billion, making it the most expensive defense program ever. The USAF's budget data in 2010 projects the F-35 to have a US$89 million flyaway cost based its planned production of 1,753 F-35As.Lockheed Martin expects to reduce government cost estimates by 20%

  • i am so glad i am not a crew chief for this

  • Those planes are beautiful... if they were not air fighters...

  • The logo to the right is so big I stared at it most of the time, wondering if it's going to damage the plane.

  • @0000000NoName0000000 no they did not. they just needed money

  • @rebelfan1216 , you mean you can't put a price for killing other nations in phony freedom allegations

  • @konischev , no US brought many foreign minds to make stuff like those

    that what other countries didn't notice the importance of doing so

  • @FMXPRO199 f-22 was also all american lol

  • @konischev Wait, I mixed this up between how we did the F-22 -_- stupid me.

  • @innersilencedotcom Yes but do you understand that back in WW2 they didn't have high-visibility radars and computers that can pick up a fly a few miles away(figure of speech). The F-22 and F-35 have radars on the front and back so when they can't see behind themselves, these radars pick up EVERYTHING.

  • @FMXPRO199 no many countries invested money to america so it can build it
