  • sensors, sensors, sensors we get it! It has great sensors, all new planes have excellent sensors but can it maneuver?? That is something a fighter jet is supposed to be able to do.

    This thing may be in big trouble if it gets into combat with other fighter jets.

  • @DarthFanta 9Gs, 50deg aoa, how can you say it can't turn?

    Plus 360 deg engagement capability with the DAS/helmet. Equally effective day and night.

    Moreover the F-135 has been tested at 20% more thrust than the specs. It is likely that in the near future the F-135 will have a wartime setting with 10% more thrust, giving the F-35A/C a decent supercruise speed.

  • @coronelcool First, its not $3 billion, and it can turn and climb and an AK can't destroy it with one magazine. And how does a man shoot a fighter jet with an AK while it is flying?

  • this plane was designed to have superior performance to the f-16. also, in air superiority combat,i would take the f-35 over the su 37 any day. then i can see the bad guy and he can't see me.

  • @TheProjektcc im calling BULLSHIT on your quote!

  • @rolandtran10 the a-10 is very manuveable..is is also an attack jet and a close air support jet..the a-10 performs and very critical role that even our newest fifth gen. fight cannot perform. which is why the pentagon decided not to cancelled it. we will always need a jet that can fly slow spot and attack smaller targets like enemy troop, tank, etc. the a-10 is a bomb truck with a cannon on its nose.

  • @TheProjektcc look at the A-10 not very manuveable

  • @TheProjektcc If it gets into a dogfight it's dead but in over the line of sight combat it should be just as good as the f-15 or better.

  • @DarthFanta And the man that designed the F-104 probably said the same thing about the F-16...

  • 3 billion dollars for a plane that does not climb do not turn and an ak 47 can destoy whith a single magazine great for a close suport plane. yea great work killing the us air superiority i take a su 37 any time and dont forget any new generation sam will take it out of the sky

  • @TheProjektcc - It'll be fine. Doesn't have to be incredible, it's been well verified that ultimate maneuverability does not make a fighter platform. I'd bet it'll match the F-16, which is still a world standard for maneuverability.

  • @pilotboy8532 Well, not according to the guy who designed the F-16. The guys were complaining about how the wings are too small etc, and that it would probably be a jack of all trades and master of none.
