  1.  @frankrenda2519  >makes me laugh when they try to fly a f35 like a sukhoi the f35 cant match the sukhoi not even close Unlike SU-27-to SU-35, F-35 doesn't have any straight vertical geometry to impede hammerhead maneuvers.

  2.  @frankrenda2519  Prove "F-117 has superior stealth" when compared to F-35A and F-22A. I already cited USAF Mike Hostage's statement on stealth comparison. F-35A has replaced F-117A on stealth strike missions while gaining "Hornet with a turbo" dogfight capability.

  4.  @frankrenda2519  Your argument is NOT backed by the official statement. USAF General M. Hostage > YOU.

  5.  @frankrenda2519  B-2 and B-21 Raider have curved surfaces that don't cross the critical angle. You don't know shit. Lockheed's early stealth fighter designs have angular shaping design while Northrop Grumman has their curvy stealth design. Northrop Grumman's curvy stealth design is original and it's different from Lockheed's early stealth design pattern.

  6.  @frankrenda2519  External geometry shaping is not the only factor for modern stealth design i.e. F-22 has internal foam while F-35 Lot 4 has non-structural CNT (carbon nanotubes). Modern stealth is also below the external skin. You don't know shit about modern stealth.

  9.  @frankrenda2519  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gX_vZB-2nE Super Hornet vs Flanker. Notice Flanker's tail drop moment after high AoA. F-35A's empty weight is closer to MIG 29/35 and F-15A/C. F-35A lighter than F/A-18E Super Hornet

  11. F-35's top speed is Mach 1.6 with 1200 Mph.

  12. Note that higher speeds have higher IR signatures.

  14. Quoting Out Of The Shadows: RNLAF experiences with the F-35A - Combat Aircraft Magazine May 2018 specifically against David Axe's leaked Y2015 report. Knight divulged a little more information about flying basic fighter manoeuvres (BFM) in an F-35. 'When our envelope was cleared to practise BFM we got the opportunity to fight some fourth-generation fighters. Remember, back the rumors were that the F-35 was a pig. The first time the opponents showed up [in the training area] they had wing tanks along with a bunch of missiles. I guess they figured that being in a dirty configuration wouldn't really matter and that they would still easily outmanoeuvre us. By the end of the week, though, they had dropped their wing tanks, transitioned to a single centerline fuel tank and were still doing everything they could not to get gunned by us. A week later they stripped the jets clean of all external stores, which made the BFM fights interesting, to say the least ---- 1. Lightest empty weight F-16A MLU air-superiority model needs to be clean (no weapons, no external tanks) to make visual range dogfight interesting against combat-loaded F-35A Block 3F. 2.

  15. F-16Vista can sustain 90 degrees AOA F-35A can sustain 60-70 degrees AOA. F-16Vista doesn't have stealth and F-35's IR reduction methods.

  16. Lockheed JAST was forward canards with delta wing stealth fighter.

  19.  @donkoh5738  F-16XL wouldn't have solved SEAD missions with advanced SAMs. F-16C Block 50 (GE engine) can supercruise. The F110-GE-100 produces more thrust in MIL power than the F100-PW-220 and the F110-GE-129 more than the F100-PW-229.

  20. F-35A's longer combat range has reduced the need for aircraft carrier battle groups. F-35A fleet stationed in Poland, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, and Greece can strike at Moscow without the need for an air tanker.

  21. That F-35A unit was the AF-02 unit before Block 2B state.

  25.  @tolson57  F/A-18E/F Super Hornet was born out of the failed McDuck A-12 Avenger II (F-117A like solution for USN) and killed NATF programs.

  26.  @WALTERBROADDUS  Best thing about Super Hornet is the angle of attack feature which is higher than USN's classic Hornet which is superior to F-16 and classic F-15A/B/C/D/E.

  27.  @puellamservumaddominum6180  >no but stealth is not that important if you make garbage airplane like the F35. Your argument is garbage. F-35's RCS is rated at VLO while F/A-18E's RCS is rated LO range.

  28.  @springbloom5940  F-35A Block 3F has a longer combat radius when compared to F-14D and F/A-18E Block 3.

  32.  @Mythos1981  From USAF lethal-f-35a-heading-to-red-flag-19-1 “We have an upgraded software suite that has improved our sensor fusion. We’ve got an expanded flying envelope with more maneuverability. We have the ability to employ more weapons, including the 25-mm cannon,” said Lt. Col. Yosef Morris, 4th Fighter Squadron commander. “When you couple those things with the two years we’ve had to improve our tactics, we’re bringing a much more lethal F-35A to this Red Flag and ultimately to the battlefield.” --- 1st F-35A Block 3F (9G) config units in Red Flag 2019.

  34.  @Mythos1981  F-35A is about 20 to 30 percent common with F-35C. F-35C has different wings and stabilator designs when compared to F-35A.

  36.  @Mythos1981  The claim: World's first female F-35 pilot crashed a fighter jet on its first flight In 2015, Lt. Col. Christine Mau became the first woman to fly the fifth-generation F-35 Lightning II, also known simply as the F-35. Mau has never crashed a plane, she told USA TODAY. But an article from February 2022 that claims she ran an F-35 into the ground has continued to circulate on social media. The link to the February 2022 article from the Russian aviation blog Avia Pro has been shared on Facebook more than 120 times in total, according to social media data aggregator CrowdTangle. The claim is FALSE, Mau said. The article references an incident that occurred this year, and Mau retired from flying in 2017.

  38.  @felemaosa  J35 has two MiG 29/35's medium-sized engines. Dual-engine F-35 project is effectively an evolved F-22 with F-35's material science improvements.

  39.  @兵石  F-47 has enhanced stealth. F-55's stealth level is at the F-35 level, hence they are exportable.

  40. F-35C's larger wing is 80 percent of F-22's wing area.

  42. F-35A Block 3F is 9G. F-35B Block 3F is 7G. F-35C Block 3F is 7.5G.

  44.  @johngoscinski1995  My comments are based on F-16's real designer i.e. Harry Hillaker. A statement from the real F-16 designer on a larger wing area http://www.codeonemagazine.com/article.html?item_id=37 F-16 Designer Harry Hillaker Harry Hillaker's statement on low wing loading and wing size... _For example, the drag coefficient of an F-16 is about the same as that of an F-4. However, the F-16 has about one-third the drag of an F-4 in level flight. At angle of attack, it is about one-fifteenth We knew that we wanted low wing loading and high thrust loading. But we also knew that low wing loading means more weight and more drag Critics like Pierre Sprey's argument on low wing loading are insufficient. Pierre Sprey didn't tell you the larger wings introduce higher drag. Pierre Sprey did NOT design F-16! The trick with F-16's design is to have medium wing loading, smallish wings, and lower wing loading during an angle of attack turn with vortex lift. F-16 has a blended body-wing design to generate extra lift from the body. For vortex lift generation, F-16 was designed with low drag at an angle of attack, hence smaller wings.

  45.  @JoseFernandez-wu8pj  Japan's Mitsubishi F-2 has a low RCS (radar cross-section) full composite wings design which differs from the normal F-16C. R&D cost was spread across over low unit numbers. Mitsubishi F-2's avionics are similar to F-16E Block 60 e.g. AESA radar. Japan's F-15J is being upgraded to F15-JSI with AESA radar-related avionics. The major difference between F-15-JSI vs F-15EX is with the digital FCS that enables F-15X's high angle of attack features. USAF's F-15E-0 and F-15E-1 build don't have F-15EX's digital FCS high angle of attack features. Japan's Mitsubishi F-35A has a higher per-unit cost when compared to Lockheed-(TX, USA)'s and Leonardo-(Italy, EU)'s F-35A builds. Lockheed-(TX, USA)'s F-35A Lot 14 build = about $79 million per unit. Mitsubishi F-35A build = about $85 million per unit.

  47.  @johngoscinski1995  From thediplomat.com/2020/04/flankers-vs-gripens-what-happened-at-the-falcon-strike-2015-exercise/ The Su-27 on the other hand, benefits from greater engine thrust and better sustained kinematic performance/turn rate than Gripen-C. SU-27SK has a superior sustain turn when compared to Gripen C. From China's SU-27SK vs Thailand's Gripen C, the low wing loading argument means little when Gripen C's engine is weak.

  48. With 43,000 lbf to future 45,000 lbf engine for 4.5 gen fighter, a new clean-sheet design will be required. F-16XL is NOT design for the common engines with F-35A Block 4.x and NGAD.

  49.  @JoseFernandez-wu8pj  F-16C Block 50/52 are built-in higher unit numbers and its airframe's material composition is not much different from F-16C Block 30s.
