    The U.S. military's bidding at that time was basically compressed into four bids into one tender, that is, the Air Force economic aircraft, the Navy economic aircraft, the Marine Corps vertical take-off and landing attack aircraft, the Air Force near ground support aircraft, the F 35 technology is undoubtedly very advanced, but it takes into account too many design indicators, and any one is a dead index, and the last thing that comes out is a four-dislike, air supremacy, ground attack, vertical take-off and landing, close support, everything can do a little, but everything is not good. The only thing that is commendable is that the ground attack is not bad, and in the end, it is the ability to play ground attack on the battlefield. Just like the F 111 in the past 60s, the original all-round aircraft could only be used as a bomber in the end.

    Eventually, the F15, F14, F16, etc. must be redesigned to meet other requirements, and if the United States has sufficient funds, it will definitely have to redesign an air supremacy aircraft to meet the requirements, as in the past, and the Marine Corps will also need a specially designed vertical take-off and landing aircraft. In general, the F35 project, in the end, got a ground attack aircraft. It simply cannot meet the needs of the future US military.

    According to the Chief of Staff of the US Air Force Moseley, the name "Lightning 2" was given to this new generation fighter (F35) in honor of the P-38 "Lightning" fighter used by the United States during World War II and the "Lightning" twin-engine supersonic fighter created by the United Kingdom in the mid-50s of the last century.

    One is Lockheed's P-38 Lightning and the other is English Electric Lightning. Lockheed and Martin Marietta merged to become Lockheed Electric, which later merged into BAC, which in turn became today's Martin and BAE, respectively, the two largest contractors for the JSF program. So you get the idea.

    Indeed, there was a time when many people thought that the F-22 might be called Lightning II, at least at the time NovaLogic had speculated. Of course, today you know that this is wrong.

    The American Lightning 2 has nothing to do with the British Lightning, the American Lightning 2 is the P38 Lightning fighter that distinguishes Lockheed from World War II.

    That would be the F22 or the F35.

    The F35 is mainly ground attack, and air combat can only be first-class, not super-first-class. The T50 has not yet been developed, the performance is not known at all, it may surpass the F22, or it may not be built at all, the F22 is an all-round model, except that his bomb load is very small. Going too high is also a big bruise.

    f22!The F22 is the workhorse, and the F35 is a light fighter. Just like the F15 and F16 of the year, the F16 and F35 are like the bridesmaids of the F15 and F22, just as an auxiliary to the main machine.

    As for the T50, of course, it is stronger, the F22 has been out for almost 20 years, and the T50 has not yet been born, and 20 years of technological development is enough to explain the problem.

    Of course, the F22A has an absolute advantage, and the F35 is an export version of the fourth-generation aircraft from the United States. The T50 is just an immature model at the moment.

    The T-50 has nothing at all. Like one of the key technologies, radar, the United States has been building AESA since APG-79, and now there is no one that can be practical, not to mention the advanced AESA of APG-81, which has more complex software, is simply blank. In that year, the ATF test was 3 months, and Mao Zi flew more than Mao Zi from the first flight of the T-50 to the present.

    I don't know which model you're talking about.

    Originally, the Marine Corps version of this fighter with short take-off and vertical landing functions, that is, the B type, will have initial combat capability no later than December 2015; The target date for the Air Force version is December 2016; The target date for the naval version (designed for takeoff and landing on aircraft carriers) is February 2019.

    In 2012, Congress ordered the military to set a date by June 1 of this year. In 2001, when Lockheed Martin won the contract in competition with Boeing, the Marine Corps, Air Force and Navy versions of the aircraft were set for initial combat capability in April 2010, June 2011 and April 2012, respectively.

    However, due to the progress of development, this time has been greatly delayed.

    Now the Navy and the Marine Corps version, which is the B and C versions, are not very clear, but the initial combat effectiveness of the A type.

    The US Air Force has announced that the timing of the formation of combat capability for the production of F-35 fighters by Lockheed Martin has been brought forward to mid-2016.

    After 2015, the F-35 will be able to form combat effectiveness.

    There are a few points:

    1. Mass production is not a big problem, but the production speed is slow.

    2. The production speed is slow, after all, the output is low, the quantity is small, and it is impossible to be outnumbered.

    3. It also needs supporting maintenance, maintenance equipment, and first-class systems.

    4. Pilots of new aircraft should also be trained, including the training of aircrew, mainly in software, not hardware!!

    The F-35 was originally designed to form a low-end model with the F-22.

    The F-22 is definitely the best fighter in the world in service, and its superior combat effectiveness has brought the best level, and the unit price has approached 200 million US dollars. Even a wealthy lord like the U.S. military will not be able to equip it in large quantities.

    It needs a fighter with enough combat power and not very expensive to compensate for the lack of F-22 numbers.

    That's how the F-35 came about.

    The reason why today's fighters are so expensive is, firstly, the engine, and secondly, the on-board radar. As a low-end aircraft, the F-35 does not need the invincible combat effectiveness of the F-22, in layman's terms, he is used by the F-22 to clean up the battlefield. The configuration of a single engine is already able to meet the requirements, and there is no need to use a double engine.

    In fact, the technology used by the F-35 is inferior to that of the F-22, and its stealth design, airborne radar, and combat radius are all much worse than those of the F-22. Even if you change to a double engine, you can't hit the height of the F-22.

    The F-35 is a bit like the F-16, and the F-16 was originally designed to make up for the lack of F-15 numbers. Coincidentally, the F-16 is also a single engine, and the F-15 is a double engine.

    Maybe the F-35 can write a legend like the F-16!

    Personally, I am very optimistic about the F-35, although it is inferior to the F-22, but compared with other main fighters in the world, it has been comprehensively surpassed!

    Correct a sentence on the first floor: a military aircraft with excellent performance and cheap, this is the pinnacle of design!

    The U.S. military's operational concept is that the F22 twin-plane formation will be a breakthrough force.

    Equipped with the F35 follow-up strike force of the 1st squad.

    That's the problem of high and low matching.

    After all, the F22 is too expensive to have it all.

    It's as if we have J-10 and J-7, so much is a reason.

    Hey, humble.

    F-35 is precisely because of the size and weight of the aircraft itself can not be designed and finalized, weight is a big problem, it directly affects the performance indicators of the aircraft Therefore, twin engines are basically impossible for F35

    An aircraft is generally not yet powerful and powerful, and that is the peak of design

    The F35 is a simplified version of the F22, how can it be more powerful than the F22.

    F35 is mainly used in medium and long-range air combat, different from the manufacturing intention of 22, 22 is used to fight against Su series fighters, to achieve the advantage of close air combat, and 35 is a multi-functional fighter, there are ABC3 models, F35-B can take off and land vertically, can be used for electronic warfare, radar reflection area is about square meters, ** built-in, good stealth performance, outstanding radar performance, the use of more advanced airborne AESA multi-function radar, can destroy enemy aircraft at a long distance, and so on, each has its own advantages.

    The F-35 is not an export version of the F-22...

    The combat nature of the F-35 and F-22 is also not the same.

    The F22 and F-35 are similar to the F-15 and F-16, and the F-22 plays the front to suppress the enemy's air power and seize air supremacy; The F-35 follows up on strikes against enemy ground targets or covers the follow-up of bombers and attack aircraft in the rear.

    Some of the electronic equipment of the F-35 is more advanced than that of the F-22, but in terms of air combat confrontation alone, the F-35 is inferior to the F-22.

    The F22 has never been exported and will not be considered for export.

    This question is wrong. How many 22 can withstand 35 I think: 35 is a joint combat aircraft. There is hardly a chance of individual combat.

  21. Anonymous users2024-01-16

    Because more than 10,000 projects of F35 have not passed the test so far, and it is garbage if it cannot be used, it will not be ...... until 2019 at the earliest
