Jake Hayes , F-35A Block 3F has 9Gs while F-35B Block 3F has 7Gs. F-35A has superior rolling scissors over F-15 and F-16.

The main differences between F-35A's 9G vs F-35B's 7G are mostly due to area rule, forward lift/CG and less empty weight being optimised for F-35A. F-35A has software limited 50 degrees angle of attack with 9Gs (+ unknown G margin) i.e. it's Hornet with a turbo which has 8G (7.5G + 0.5G margin) with 45 degrees angle of attack. 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. I quote Overall, flying the F-35 reminds me a bit of flying the F/A-18 Hornet, but with an important difference: It has been fitted with a turbo https://hushkit.net/2015/12/18/typhoon-versus-rafale-the-final-word/ Both Rafale and EuroFighter has similar angle of attack (AoA) limit. Rafale http://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/flight-test-dassault-rafale-rampant-rafale-334383/ The DFCS is a "g" demand system with +9.0g/29° angle of attack (AoA) limit in air-to-air mode and +5.5g/20° AoA limit in both of the two air-to-ground/heavy stores modes (ST1 and ST2) to cater for forward or aft centre of gravity Original source (non-English) http://suomenkuvalehti.fi/jutut/kotimaa/suomella-vahvat-ilmavoimat-mutta-kuinka-kauan/ Frisian flag 2012 exercises in Holland, Finnish F-18Cs gets 100 kills and 6 loses against Eurofighter (Germany, UK), Polish new F-16 and older F-16 planes (Norway, Belgium) and Gripen (Swedish) Kill ratio is about 16:1 in favor of Finland's F-18C. F-35B is closer to F-18C while F-35A exceeds F-18C.
