F-35 Short Takeoff & Vertical Landings - Awesome Views

F-35B pilots, Maj. Aric Liberman (05 jet) and Capt. Brian Hansell (01 jet), with Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 121 based out of Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Ariz., perform short take off and vertical landings as part of required flying field carrier landing practices (FCLP) at the stations auxiliary landing field, Wednesday, May 6, 2015. The landing field simulates the flight deck of an aircraft carrier to prepare pilots for landing and taking off at sea.

@Will Swift It's not practical for any fighter and a total waste of fuel, let alone carrying weapons.

[@Appletank8]

Pretty sure they can VTOL if they really wanted to, it’s just highly discouraged. At takeoff the plane is at its heaviest, therefore the most energy needed, and probably a higher risk of vortex rings and other hovering problems. If you can use a runway though, use the runway.

It's ability to VIFF (vector in forward flight) was a tremendous advantage which confused it's enemy no end. With the panels opening for the what I assume is a secondary engine, looks as if the F35 will not be able to VIFF.

[@KittySN]

+Личный канал Don't see the combative point of vertical start personally. A plane that doesn't move is a fine target. To use in air-to-air combat seems rare. Big waste of tax payer money for any government. There is good reason these planes should not exist. It is better this technology be used for science, such as space travel, instead of governments, and lemmings of governments, squabbling over their idea of superiority, territory and control. . . . Instead we kill each other.

[@Dragon.7722]

+KittySN The point of this aircraft is to be used on an aircraft carrier and helicopter carriers aswell. Also for short runways. It can basically land and start everywhere and that's a huge strategic strength.

[@Mitoice1982]

+KittySN This is the F-35B variation for the marines use, for short range tactical combat, the air force F-35 variation doesnt have this big fan because for long range combat is not needed

[@_j.v.st._7367]

+KittySN Normaly you ofcourse need special runways to start and land. With vertical start you basicly dont need them at all. If the area of fighting is far away, you need neighbor states in the area to allow you to use theyr runways. In the falkland war after the agentinians runway was hit by a bomb they wasnt able to start and destroy the Britain Warships. While a vertical takeoff Jet rolls out the bunker after an bombardment and start.

[@renatobashir1476]

Asif Alam Russia had the first vertical take off plane in the world, decades ago. Abandoned the project due its inefficiency !

[@eagleeyez1280]

Renato Bashir Yes because Russia beached and scraped a lot of their Navy’s infrastructure and main body fleets. Russia is located in one of the worst places in the world to be anywhere near effective on the sea. Their bays and oceans freeze over half the year crippling them essentially and hindering their Naval and commercial ship routes. So why would a county like Russia not have VOTL when they have more opportunities to build landing bases on ice or.. I don’t know maybe a moveable platform kinda like an aircraft carrier right? Because Russia as a super power with the other great nations of the world wouldn’t work. They scrapped VOTL because they don’t plan anything as they really only plan for the next 10 years. Russia is also notorious for giving up on projects when they see that they’re going have to throw money into it to see a profit and national defense. The US is exactly the opposite, you can say the US spends so much on defense but seeing as my country is the leading superpower with with land, air, and sea combat then I don’t think you have to worry about if you think that VOTL is inefficient. It’s got the raw power of a bomber/strike fighter and has further reach than any Russian helicopter, speed, stealth components alone put it above any competition. The SU-80 is the most impressive aircraft Russia has and it still doesn’t reach the same bar as Gen 5 American planes. Hope you learned something today. HOOAH

By having a vertical landing ability, this will eliminate all those scary and dangerous carrier landings that you see on television and movies (like Top Gun). A pilot can just come and hover and easily land on the carrier.

[@marcojoly2010]

Amazing! I wish I could drive one of those.

[@sanforce]

Does anyone know what power setting the F35-B uses to do a vertical landing (no weapons, low fuel load)? I know it's a heavily automated system, just wondering how close it is to max thrust when floating around. This program might be expensive, but it produced one hell of a jet (or 3).

[@martijn9568]

Empty weight of an F-35B is around 32,500 pounds according to Wikipedia. The F-35B's F135 engine produces 28,000 lbf at max military thrust. A rough estimate would be that slighly over half of the thrust to VTOL would be made using the normal jet engine and that the other half is produced using the lift fan, but the exact ratios are very much dependent on the center of gravity of the airframe. I've got a feeling that the exact center of gravity of an F-35 isn't public knowledge at this time.

Propaganda is a Russian specialty. The term 'potemkin village', a synonym for not what it appears to be, refers to early Russian fakery. Entire books have been written on the vast extent and worldwide impact of Russian government orchestrated lying. I expect you are a Russian propagandist and know this already.

[@MaximusX67]

Agreed! You can take the military power of the next 4 or 5 countries combined and they don't meet the size or power of the US military. The only other fighter jets out there that even come close to the F35 or the F22 in air superiority are the Su-35 & Su-37 that Russia has put together. There's video of their Su-35 on KZbin and it has impressive power and maneuverability as well. They appear to have put together a decent fighter. However, pilot training and readiness, and US technology in these jets ..... not to mention the sheer number of these jets that will be in the US arsenal (compared to what Russia can afford to build) still leave no doubt that the US easily dominated the Air, as well as the Sea!

[@twisted5544]

Maximus DreivinX Yea those Russian upgrades on migs are compatible in speed but definitely not on performance, I mean the F22 could be right on there ass and they wouldn't know it lol

[@StereoSpace]

Last I looked, at Red Flag exercises in Nevada, the F-22 had hundreds of kills to zero against 4th gen aircraft from air forces all over the world.

[@timtscott461]

That door being extended on the short takeoff really scares me. It doesn't look that structurally sound. I'm sure the engineers have worked out all math for that, but it still looks scary given the amount of drag being placed on it.

[@jesuinaaparecidaortizdasdo9982]

[@erbhupy]

What is the use of vertical landing without vertical takeoff ? If runway is not sufficient in size then how the vertically landed plane will take off again ?

[@dommito7924]

Vertical landing without vertical takeoff is great because there is no need for an arrester system (cables to catch hooks on carriers), short take off is used because you dont need a catapult system. This all allows the f-35B to operate off of smaller ships. I am not 100% sure all f-35bs are capable of vertical takeover; however, they have done it. It is just very inefficient

[@breadturbo]

+Ilyas Sheik Harriers could(albeit unloaded), there is a video of it on here from Farnborough air show if you search.

[@mbrazile1]

+Ilyas Sheik the idea that this aircraft cannot transition from a hover to forward flight is preposterous. seriously. if it could not transition in such a way the entire vertical lift system is basically undermined. there would be no way to abort a vertical landing if that were the case. the harrier transitions from vertical to forward flight by rotating 4 exhaust nozzles forward or aft. the f-35 operates on the exact same principal the main difference being that the forward and aft thrust component is controlled by the rear exhaust nozzle alone. the wing mounted lift fans control the yaw and roll component, the center (and by far largest lift fan) is responsible for the bulk of the vertical thrust, and the rear nozzle translates fore and aft.

The f22 is a naturally better fighter jet. The f35 is more intelligent with the tech innovations.

[@michaeloquendo11]

NotMe You Well, the F-22 Raptor was designed to be more of an Air-Superiority Fighter. But due to its stealth capabilities, speed, and the amount/variety of armaments it can carry, it quickly adapted to being a multi-role fighter, able to take on surveillance roles, ground attack roles, interception roles, etc. So, the Raptor may be a formidable rival to the F-35. But needless to say, I think the F-35 will have the upper hand eventually; it will be more numerous than the Raptor in terms of production, and will have the capabilities as much as the former air-superiority fighter.

This is the first program where we test and fly for fighting at the same time less the osprey Problem with flight test is the 35s are restricted. Assuming the viper beat the f-35 we all need to remember that the 9g pull is not allowed yet. The Lightning pilot will loose wings if he yanks the side stick cuts the throttle and performs a semi cobra which this plane is rumored be able to pull off. Here is why the f-35 countries should be proud. One pilot in 2025ish will have command like playing red alert. From the cockpit he will command ground and air drones while doing his mission. Less work than a viper pilot. One lightning pilot with a suite of drones in command could shut down a battle.

[@jaxpok8167]

I get that the plane has thrust vectoring but while it's hovering how are they able to control the left and right movement

[@billy007191]

beautiful plane!

[@cokecollector12]

I really wanna be a fighter pilot but the process is confusing. What branch do you join? Cause I've seen more pilots in the marines than air force. Do they join the air force and then get a plane with "marines" on it? Or did they join the marines? Also how exclusive is being a fighter pilot? Can anyone that has the qualifications do it or is there a set number allowed?

[@cotillion]

have they fixed the FOV issue yet?

Is there a video of Short Take-off off and Landing while in Beast Mode for F-35B with Hardpoints?

[@ohhanqin1209]

Why does the stabilator point down once its wheels are off on take off?

[@davidca96]

Lot of hate on these planes but I think they are awesome.

[@diahaex6462]

F-35 is also my favourite Aircraft after F-22 and Su-35

[@ADAMKTN]

The vertical landing is cool as fuck. Sharp looking piece of hardware!

[@rkstratman9437]

Wonderful video of an amazing aircraft. It will surely be helpful in the USMC's ongoing program of kicking butts. Thanks! Keith B.
