Stop picking on The Beasleys!

It's mostly stock footage anyway

Correction: Lockheed-Martin's Plant #4 has only been property of Lockheed -Martin since 1993 when they acquired General Dynamics Ft Worth Division, which was Convair until 1953 when GD took over. My Dad was an Engineering Chief for GD having worked there for 38 years. He met my Mom out there, she was in the Steno pool. My Great Aunt also worked out there when it was Convair as a Key Punch Operator.

Informative video for the military enthusiasts 👏👏👏

[@joependleton6293]

The views are amazing, the aircraft's maneuvers well during their operations! You take to the air, like a breeze 👍 good show*

[@caryd67]

Clecos are an awesome tool, I use them all the time when fabricating.

[@ioanbota9397]

Realy I like this video its interestyng

[@jeffreyspinner5437]

The F-35 fleet is the gold standard of flight readiness (upwards of 35%) and low maintenance times (for each hour of flight, there's a day or more (24 hrs) required to get back in the air). The F-35 program is so cost effective the 6th Generation plane to replace the F-35 had to be cancelled. Our enemies couldn't have done better than Lockheed Martin at kneecapping our country's military.

[@bradolsen8629]

This stuff that you’re showing right now should be deemed classified. I think this is a bad idea, but since you’re showing it, why don’t you give the Russians in the Iranians the blueprints to these planes you’ve gone this far

[@Covert1]

They can hardly fill ball bearing orders. They couldn't build a mock up wooden f35 if they wanted to

[@bradolsen8629]

@@Covert1 oh I know they’re going to regret it because they always show too much that I don’t wouldn’t be comfortable with it. Why was the brass?

At <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="383">6:23</a>.... those are F22 Raptors, not F35s. 🤔

[@lilliputlittle]

Bot followers? How much does that cost you?

[@williamhenderson9535]

How about one on a MiG-35 or the SU-75?

[@Zura_Lanch]

F16 is sucking dust like a Dyson ))

[@Bluelagoonstudios]

Where are ours? We should receive them the last year of summer.

You put in another order? 😮 🇺🇸🏭🏭🛬🛬🛫

Hi jobida

[@chaspfrank]

Why don't we go into greater detail so that we can give our adversaries every opportunity to grow their technological capability with as little innovative effort as possible on their part!!! This is really interesting information, but we are giving away the farm!

[@Ali_Ercan]

Everybody can purchase an IPhone and dismantle it to its single tiniest component, but nobody can make a functional replica of an IPhone without knowing the advanced technology behind it. So no need to worry that the adversaries can duplicate an F-35. They could have already produced a fifth gen fighter, if they had known how to do it. So this is impossible for a long time. This is my opinion.

[@RonDostal-nz2nb]

Look up the man who stole the F22 and F35 for China.

[@chaspfrank]

@@Ali_Ercan China's Chengdu J-20 5th generation fighter has many of the F-22 features built into it. Is it as good as an F-22? Probably not. But if they make several hundred more than we do, in the long run do the deficiencies make that much of a difference?

[@stanmans]

I agree but I think our adversaries know as much about the planes as we do. The one caveat is they don’t have the knowledge, resources or the people qualified to replicate our systems. Probably what is described is approved by the military. Top secret developments and capabilities for the planes are not talked about.

[@Orville-Tootenbacher]

China already hacked and stole the plans

[@garystewart3110]

No Lockheed whistle-blowers?

[@alenkerr8533]

Other countries watching especially China

[@richsteve6970]

They have already took enough of information years ago and even build a similar aircraft

[@bradolsen8629]

@@richsteve6970 that’s because the Chinese are too stupid to build their own designs. They got a copy from other compilations.

[@randischwarz5072]

Is it possible you made an error in your video? The F16 is or was manufactured by General Dynamics not Lockheed.

[@a_nadie_le_importa4914]

debes leer el título del video de nuevo ver la introducción y luego opinas

[@user-tb2jy9lu3d]

They steal their video content from others...so I'm not surprised at their commentary being wrong. They just add audio on top of the videos that they've stolen, of course not know what in the hell they're actually talking about.

Lucky it’s not a Boeing.

[@gbengaajayi6462]

Anyone thinking this is revealing technical know how is tripping

[@bobbykaralfa]

the f35 is still having issues and verticall take off is wanted by all branches. but due to the expsive nature of the f35 is why all branches may not have it.

[@kennethpryde966]

Due to "economy of scale", what with EVERYBODY buying them, they aren't all that expensive any more. A new f16 costs 30 million naked and about 70 million with all the bells and whistles. Whereas, a new f35 only costs between 70 to 100 million. So I would ask: if your government gave you 100 million to spend on new aircraft each year, would rather have two excellent, but last generation f16s or one top of the line f35 stealth fighter? I think the problem with availability in the States is that EVERYONE is buying f35 and there are more orders coming in than can reasonably be manufactured.

[@luffirton]

Where do you have the information that all the branches need or want the STOVAL version. Just asking since the Navy have large enough ships to buy the F-35C and USAF don’t need STOVAL for its operations and would actually be hindering them because F-35B and C are heavier and have less G maneuver rating than F35A.

[@chocbear8394]

everything about the F35 say ugly bug. I just don't like this plane. the F22 is far superior

[@ralfhinkemeyer8513]

Why do you show, uncommented, F-22 sequences in the F-35 film?? F.e. Nellis departure… 🧐🫣

[@sugarpoultry]

Yah I wondered the same thing.
