  2.  @isaiahlee2902  "Eurofighter Typhoon is likely to outmaneuver an F-22 Raptor in close combat" argument doesn't show the kill ratio. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6JSv8xHTbA Danish F-16A MLU beating Italy's EuroFighter dogfight example, but this doesn't tell the kill ratio.

"F-35 sits somewhere in between the F-16 and F/A-18 when it comes to within visual range manoeuvring'". 2. F-16A needs to be clean (without weapons) to make visual range dogfight interesting for F-35A Block 3F (9G). 3. Dutch acknowledge older F-35A pre-Block 3F getting beaten by F-16A with external fual tanks which changed with 9G F-35A Block 3F. http://nettsteder.regjeringen.no/kampfly/2015/11/20/a-fly-f-35-erfaringer-fra-den-forste-uka/ More F-16 vs F-35 from Norwegian pilot.

  3. F-117 shares engine parts with F/A-18 Hornets.

  4. Australian politicians are smart to not repeat the f**kup with enlarged Kockums' Västergötland class a.k.a. for Colins class. Enlarged Kockums' Västergötland class created hydrodynamic noise problems and this issue was solved by the US defense industry i.e. the US has experience with building large submarines.

  5.  @inkedseahear  US military boneyard is another "older" USAF.

  6.  Ignacio Muñoz Diaz  General Mike Hostage already claimed USAF F-35A has smaller RCS when compared to F-22A. It sucks to be wrong i.e. you.

  7.  Ignacio Muñoz Diaz  HIGH drag body? Note that F-35A's acceleration is near F-16C Block 50's Hint: "Hornet with a turbo" = F-35A

  8. F-16 has reached Block 70/72. F-16 may have another Block update with GaN AESA radar. USMC's F/A-18C/D has a GaN AESA radar update.

  11. Malaysia has two seat classic F/A-18D. Two seat models has slightly higher heavy empty weight then compared to single seat model.

  12.  @AKlover  FYI, Finland's F/A-18C has JHMCS and off-bore-sight A2A missiles.

  13.  @mwtrolle  Prove "Mig 29 have the better AoA but the F-18" when Super Hornet F/A-18E has unlimited angle-of-attack. From http://www.boeing.ca/products-and-services/defense-space-security/f-a-18e-super-hornet.page Super Hornet has unlimited angle-of-attack . Classic Hornet F/A-18A to D models has 45 degress angle-of-attack limit.

  14.  @kirkus4400  Frontal edges need to be continuous from nose to wingtip and J-20's canards don't follow this basic stealth requirement.

  15.  @lucyshi562  For stealth, F-35's doesn't exceed the "magic angle" limits.

  16.  Ignacio Muñoz Diaz  Lockheed Martin Corporation's year 2010 stealth fiber material patent http://www.google.com/patents/US20100271253 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION _ In some aspects, embodiments disclosed herein relate to a radar absorbing composite that includes a (CNT)-infused fiber material disposed in at least a portion of a matrix material. The composite is capable of absorbing radar in a frequency range from between about 0.10 Megahertz to about 60 Gigahertz. The CNT-infused fiber material forms a first layer that reduces radar reflectance and a second layer that dissipates the energy of the absorbed radar. _ ---- Lockheed Martin Corporation's year 2010 stealth fiber material patent, LM made specific comments on older stealth materials having problems with 2 Ghz range frequencies. Lockheed Martin reveals F-35 Lot 4 and above features carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced polymer (CNRP) material structures http://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/lockheed-martin-reveals-f-35-to-feature-nanocomposite-357223/

  18.  @GowthamNatarajanAI  The Russian Federation's GDP is similar to Australia's or Canada's, but Russia spends about 4% of its GDP on the military. Both Australia and the UK spend close to 2% of GDP on the military.

  19.  @GowthamNatarajanAI  For critical mass, UK needs Canada and Australia back, hence refer to CANZUK initiatives.

  20. The so-called Germans and the Japanese proven submarine designs are in 2000 tons range submarines. Aussie MoD wanted over 4000 tons submarines.

  21. Turkish Leo 2A4 is crap in the Syrian conflict. Danish Leo 2A5 was penetrated in Afghanistan.

  22. http://australianaviation.com.au/2017/07/next-eight-raaf-f-35as-on-track-for-2018-delivery/ Meanwhile, to date the RAAF’s AU-1 and -2 have flown almost 1,100 flight hours in 700 sorties, Over said They’re flying at about the utilisation rate that a mature weapon system like F-16s or F-18s are returning at. So the airplanes have really been performing remarkably well” From Australia's point of view, F-35A and F-18 have a similar utilization rate. Australia didn't buy Lot 1 to Lot 5 F-35A builds. The majority of Australian F-35A Lot builds are in Lot 9 and above Block 3F.

  23. FYI, USAF YF-17's wing angle design still has mach 2 speeds. Google search "trapezoidal wing" design.

  24. Shortfin Barracuda has a pump-jet, unlike the diesel-electric competition.

  25.  @christianpatton9364  Australia governments have a diplomatic conflict with Sweden e.g. Sweden has committed political interference in Australia with defunding.

  26.  @charlesrb3898  EU has timely supply issues.

  27.  @recklesflam1ngo968  This is BS. Australia didn't buy F-35 Lot 1 to 5. Australia has two F-35A units in Lot 6 Block 3i hardware and the rest are in Lot 9 Block 3F and above.

  28.  @jordan8538  Australia already has nuclear reactors in Lucas Heights.

  29. @TC 11 Newer US submarines can cool their nuclear reactors without active pumps.

  30. @TC 11 UK has the following submarine units and these are; Seven nuclear-powered submarines which consist of three Trafalgar and four Astute class units. Four nuclear-powered Vanguard-class (SSBN) submarines. In total, UK has 11 nuclear-powered submarines.

  31.  keith moore  Germans haven't built over 4000-ton displacement submarine. Germany's latest Type 218 is only 2,200 tonnes submerged. Both Barracuda and Shortfin Barracuda submarine classes are over 4000 tonnes submerged. The existing Collins-class submarine has 3,407 tonnes submerged.

  32. @TC 11 UK government has a budget surplus prior to COVID.

  33. @TC 11 Canberra class is not cheap when compared to Wasp-class. Canberra class was modified for UK's Lloyd's Naval Rules, hence the cost increase.

  34.  @ok-re1md  Aussie procurement for its submarine involves technology transfer, hence Virginia class solution is not on the list.

  35. @TC 11 Due to larger size, Swedes f**kup with Colins class's hydrodynamic flow vs noise characteristics with flawed external shaping. It took the US defense industry to fix this issue i.e. installed external shaping devices to fix this issue. The French already has 4700 tons submerged submarine with suitable submarine shaping for its size.
