I would :)

 

What happens when you fold the wings? You're cheating, you have CIWS on your plane, now nobody will hit you, and everyone will say they got the amraam all wrong (because they know from personal experience that in real life amraams do hit flying ships).

How about the FAG-35?

Hows about it cant hit Mach 2.5?

 

Speed is life, :doh:

 

Cool t

 

Most modern planes can't hit above 1.8 cuase they remove the movable inlet doors to save cost.

WRONG! ;)

 

Its to make it stealthier. Movable inlets reflect to radar like a chrystal chandeleers.

Yet the Typhoon has them and is reported to have a very low head on RCS. IIRC the X-35s achieved M1.6 in test flights and i don't know what they were powered with. The F-35 may be a little higher, possibly M1.7

The Typhoon is not a stealth aircraft, like the suberbug isn't. They're both 'reduced observability' aircraft, with a reduction in RCS to shorten detection range - but not as radically as an F22 or F35.

Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D

Hell...just dispense with all of the clever nicknames and just call it what it is...the F-35 Bomb Truck. This aircraft has extraordinary capabilties in just the sheer weight of ordnance it can carry, that's not even touching on the other sensor and anti-sensor capabilities.

Since it will be paid mostly by money lent in China, they could give it a Chinese name? F-35 Mao or something?

The F-35 Vulture, it orbits high above it's prey and strikes when its not looking.

 

Also about the F-35 there is a piece about it in the latest issue of AFM. I havent read it yet myself but it headlines that the UK are considering pulling out of the project. I can't see that happening as the Royal Navy will have no fighters if this hppens.

 

Israel is also not happy that it will not be allowed to fit it's own systems to the F-35 and may also pull out of the project.

How about the F-35 Owl? The owl, although its name is a bit unsexy, is by far, the undisputed aerial stealth predator, and he/she works best in darkness. Ever heard an owl flap its wings? If you answer "yes" to that question...well...caught ya. :D

Its just more international political mythology, Hawg. Don't try to understand it, it'll drive you crazy, and there's not much truth to it anyway...so let them believe what they want to believe. :D
