That's not true. If you figure over a lifespan of the f35 dividing the 1.17 Trillion dollar cost between the number of "Potential" sales of this plane, which is an attempt ato decieve. Your statement is a lie on its face. I know someone who worked for Lockheed on both the f35 and f22 and he stated the F22 is a much better aircraft in all respects and that the production of the F22 stopped only because Lockheed could not extract as much $$ of of that platform as the F35.

[@scottricklaroque7428]

@Apple Tek Support It MIGHT be successful if they can ever do what they set out to accomplish. Then it would cost less per plane to build, but we would have to build several thousand of them to average the price per plane down where it makes sense. But face it, by the time they do that it will already be time for the next generation fighter to be built as they took too long. And if they learn from their mistakes they'll go back to building the exact plane a military division needs instead of one plane doing it all.

Just a quick correction. The B variant is STOVL; short take off, vertical landing. For all intents and purposes a B variant mission ready can't take off vertically due to it's fully loaded weight. Once it comes back from a mission with less fuel and expended munitions it can land vertically. For the short take off the exhaust nozzle still points in a downward position and utilizes a ramp with no need for a catapult.

[@frankleespeaking9519]

1) It was not a “joint” Boeing/Lockheed effort that became the F35. 2) Boeing X32 and Lockheed x35 competed against one another. 3) Every generation of aircraft will always be more expensive than the aircraft it replaces. 4) This aircraft,although expensive, is meant to perform tasks that used to require several aircraft. During Desert Storm you needed cruise missiles to knock out communications, F4 wild weasels to knock out SAM sites, EF 111 to Jam radar, A10’s and F16’s to take out ground targets , F15’s to provide air cover and AWACS to make sure they didn’t collide with each other. It’s much cheaper if one type of aircraft can perform Air to Air, Air to Ground, Jam, collect intel etc etc... 5) The more of these sold the cheaper they become 6) The next step in military aviation will be drones

[@themc.kennyshow6585]

My guy you were absolutely right then, and you are now. Looking at the Russo-Ukrainian war, drone warfare is huge. Infographics has gotten a bit better. But man some of their war vids are still hit or miss

[@LRRPFco52]

Every assertion in this video is incorrect so far, and I’m only at 3:06. The program goes back to 1983, and was joint UK/USMC/USAF for the SSF/ASTOVL way before JAST or JSF. The silly mission profile they represented in the beginning? Yeah, Israel started doing strikes with F-35s into Syria in 2017, USMC in 2018, and USAF in 2019 and nobody stopped. Video post date is Oct 2020. Numerous articles from USMC, USAF, and Israeli news document this in detail, to include availability rates, numbers of bombs dropped, sorties flown, different mission sets accomplished in single sorties, how USMC F-35Bs working off an LHD in the Red Sea covered targets from Syria to Afghanistan, and how once the UAE saw what the F-35 is capable of, were willing to make a peace deal with Israel so they could be cleared to buy F-35As as well. The future referred to in this video is years old already, with far more complex mission sets, threats, and responses.

I remember watching the late 1990’s Joint Strike Fighter documentary on Discovery Channel as a kid. Every other word in the show was “cost effective” and “inexpensive”, I remember thinking “Wow, they’re trying really hard to convince themselves it’s going to be cheap.”

[@LRRPFco52]

Funny thing is it actually is extremely cost effective and is currently the most affordable fighter in the world. For example, "cheap" Chinese Chengdu J-10A fighters cost $58.88 million each. 16 of them have crashed so far with 6 pilots killed, numerous homes burned on the ground. At least 1/3 of those crashes are from engine failure. Another 1/3 from unknown technical failure. 103 Flankers have crashed with 136 fatalities. Just in the first 10 years of F-16 service, we lost 143 of them with 71 fatalities. 720+ JSF built and 15 years later...2 Bs and 2 As have crashed, only 1 B model from mechanical failure. A model unit price is lower than any Western fighter at $77.9 million.

They do all the Viper models' jobs better than they can whether it be D-SEAD, CSAR, strike, A2A, and CAS. They have ISTAR capabilities that smoke the U-2S, RQ-4, and MQ-9.

F35 is a multi-role aircraft, capable of CAS, ground strikes, and CAP. Furthermore, and I'm surprised people haven't twigged to it yet, it can also be a mobile drone-tender, and can accept and relay information from drones in the area, giving it off-bore targeting so it doesn't have to light up its own radar array to achieve lock-on. The F22 is a strict CAP and A2/AD dogfighter role, capable of shooting down anything that shares the skies with it. In terms of combat against other aircraft, the F22 is still superior to the F35, but isn't as capable of providing CAS or having as much payload for ground strikes. They both have valid uses. The su57 was obsolete before it ever got planned. The more money Russia wastes on them, the better for everyone else.
