They've got a really unique engine note. Nothing sounds like an F-35.

[@sumott497]

Unlike its predecessors, its engine is more akin to a jet airliners than that of the traditional fighter jet. I think GE made a Jet Turbine engine that achieved 115,00 lbs of thrust.

[@gillmanjr87]

It’s also very loud, even by fighter engine standards. VERY loud. I used to work for Pratt and Whitney and worked on this engine years ago. I’ve also been to about 20 air shows in my life. There is nothing like the 35. It may not be the “headliner” at air shows but it’s one of the most exciting aircraft to see fly.

[@sumott497]

@@gillmanjr87 Well just like fighter jets of the past, the F35 may be getting a new power plant in the future that ticks over the thrust'o'meter to 50k lbs

[@dblankenship88]

Quantum Computers the SR-71 used the P&W J58 people sometimes don’t understand the complexity of that engine and how after Mach 2 is worked of a compressor bleed to achieve Mach 3. The F-35’s current engines are currently being redesigned to see if they can produce more thrust but also operate more efficiently. GE Aviation is developing the XA100 demonstrator and P&W the XA101 demonstrator engines. They were awarded a massive contract to get the new engines built and tested by 2021.

Out of all the F-35 variants, the F-35A is probably my favorite. Comes with the cannon out of the box so to speak, yet without the complexity of a VTOL system or the extra weight to make it carrier-borne.

[@sumott497]

Still, the Vtol Variant operates a hell lot better than the Harrier. It was great being sub sonic, and couldnt carry nearly as much as a F-35B. Considering the very shotty safety record of the Harrier, the F-35B is still a massive upgrade.

[@tijmenvrijburg8682]

It should be loud! The F-35 Lightning has the most powerful production fighter jet engine in the world - the Pratt & Whitney F135-PW-100 with max thrust rated at 43,000 lbs of thrust. In comparison, the F-16 Fighting Falcon's jet engine (PW or GE versions) have a maximum thrust of around 30,000 lbs. Even though the Lightning is designed to defeat the enemy mainly with its stealth and weapons systems, the pilots are plenty able to defend themselves in close quarter combat.

Gerwin Bell I would add that the requirement was to be as agile as an F-16 when carrying its full payload. It appears to have met that requirement. As far as being a step up, pilots have said that the F-35s situational awareness and stealth give it a huge advantage over everything but a Raptor.

[@forzaelite1248]

@@gerwinbell2391 late reply but the F16 is limited to 25-28° AoA, any higher and the nose induces a violent pitch up moment that can depart the aircraft and roll it over. The F35'S pedal turn and tactical pitch are things the F16 just physically can't do. Also the FAA website has a document on the demo maneuvers, they fly this routine with the full 18,000lb fuel load so she's a lot heavier loaded than she looks. It's essentially carrying 2 and a half F16 internal loads and still being comparable in sustained turn rates. I advise looking at the Combined Arms demos to see how much better it retains energy when they don't try to yeet the nose for a tight turn, it gets around 135° in about the same amount of time as here: 5 or so seconds. The Australian demos are also pretty good

That's why it's not incorrect to speak of a motorboat, or a motorcar, or a motor speedway, even if the boat or car is clearly powered by combustion. Note that if there's no combustion, there's no engine. Purely electric cars don't have engines. As nouns, motor can also refer to a nonspecific agent that causes motion: "happiness is the aim of all men and the motor of all action", and engine can refer to something used to achieve a purpose: "an engine of change", a railway locomotive, or a machine used in warfare: "medieval engines of war". In a strictly physics sense an engine converts energy into mechanical work. A motor is a subset of engines that produce motion as the mechanical work. So all motors are engines but not all engines are motors. Sometimes they are used interchangeable eg. rocket engine and rocket motor. Motor is generally used for electrical devices but it's also used as an abbreviation for motorized eg. motorboat or motorcycle.
