Before seeking air-superiority, a fighter jet must first seek air-worthiness. The last F35 accident happened on 28 May 2024. Presumably there is still way to go.
The amount of money they spend in that garbage could feed every kid in school a three course meal at lunch in every country that houses them. Can’t they just do the nuclear war thing to cool the planet because of all the pollution like the nuclear war book said. The war against the (religious propaganda story book fraud class)hasn’t stopped and they already called global warming why aren’t we in nuclear winter and in underground cities until the planet recovers.
Take it from me who is lucky to own both, i much prefer my f22 to go cruise with. My f35 just isn't the same. Both great in their own ways but my raptor just has a special place in my heart! I thought when i sold my f15 to upgrade to the 35 id regret it but nope its definitely more fun to fly than the f15
I was an F-35 pilot for 10 years and an F-22 pilot for 8. They’re both the best at what they were designed to do. Russia and China have nothing that can touch the F-22. i will say wait until you see what America has in the pipeline though…
The F-35 has a flaw in its tail design meaning it can only be supersonic for 2 minutes and 30 seconds per sortie. Otherwise the tail literally gets ripped off by the stress. The flaw is considered too expensive to fix, and the F-35s role has been redesigned to be sub-sonic. Most expensive weapons system in world history.
Can everyone report this page for its use of AI generated garbage. I love the subject matter but no one should be subjected to this low level delivery of information. It’s literally gross to hear the way this AI is speaking about the F22 and F35.
Let's compare a 20 year old air supremacy weapon with an unlimited budget multi-purpose platform, a dozen years later, designed to do one of three different jobs. None of which is air supremacy. And they need 3 variants to do it. What utter bullshit. The F-22 would absolutely obliterate an F-35 in a single dog fight. An F-15-EX would kill both of them at distance. The F-35 is like a mini AWACS platform that augments both the F-22 and the F-15/ax. Let's compare a watermelon and a spiderweb. Morons.
