Spectacular solo action from the Lightning II, and then with the Fighting Falcon, the two jets perform at the 2018 Miami Beach Air Show after rain and wind postponed much of the previous day's show.
mcbure1 pakFa can not even take off without its engines failing. A bunch of US F22, f15, f16s flew into Syria right above where suppedly two su57s are held. They did not even go airborne to do a non violent intercept, letting America know they are there and to not fuck with them. They sat still if they even had enough luck to fly to Syria in the first place.
mcbure1 look at how much time the SU57 takes to do these manuvers. It is way under powered. The wings are too wide and cause the plane to take too long to do flips etc. The F15 is not stealth and able to fire missles at any angle. This was a nice display of DEFWU.
I won't spoil you the fun. Take Su27 flight manuals, you can have them translated to english if russian is not your motherlanguage. To get SU35 value is rather easy, since you factor in 3% increase in drag, update the new increased weight (50% AA, full combat load out [1 EFT] and empty weight). CImax, ITR and STRs and other metrics are the usual formulas you can find in wiki, or college (aero engineering) books if you trust them more (they are actually the same formula. You can have block 3i F35 datas regarding basic metrics (ITR, STR) by using a stop watch and a RIAT video. Empty weight, 50% and full AA load out (6 120Ds load out) are public. For both plane, you can have maximum range, ferry range, loiter times (time on stations if you want to go pro and factor in sortie % and mission availability rates if you want to simulate scramble scenarios) and most importantly, fuel loads. Drag index induced by external storage is pretty much the same for both side, so you can work with western public datas. Truly good enough. Now, given there are people that actually did it (i.e.: f-16.net forum people already did it), those really educated guess-stimations actually might change radically your opinion on many, many fighter. What it truly is gamechaning is how important is to fly sleek and how dramatically impactful is the capability to have real fuel to spare when energy maneuvering (something russian designes never really excelled in to begin with ) really happens. The result will pretty much explain why some air forces did some of those controversial 180s (Indian Air Force and the quitting of FGFA). You'd find out how respectful Mirages still are, how good eurocanard are, why the chinese went 5th gen and why RuAF dried up itself to chase the Su57. But more importantly why the F35 design and capabilities are being copied all over the world.
The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is a family of single-seat, single-engine, all-weather stealth multirole fighters undergoing final development and testing for the United States and partner nations. The fifth generation combat aircraft is designed to perform ground attack and air defense missions. The F-35 has three main models: the F-35A conventional takeoff and landing (CTOL) variant, the F-35B short take-off and vertical-landing (STOVL) variant, and the F-35C carrier-based Catapult Assisted Take-Off But Arrested Recovery (CATOBAR) variant. On 31 July 2015, the first squadron of F-35B fighters was declared ready for deployment after intensive testing by the United States Marines.
But this plane can't maneuver. This plane lacks power. This plane can't accelerate. The single engine isn't enough. All the bullshit we heard for the last 3 years, the first 25 seconds of video proves all of it wrong.
Wow, I think that first turn was the tightest one ive seen so far. It looked like he just about lost all of his airspeed and powered throu it. A hot and humid day, I wonder if that turn caught him by surprise?
Mach1Airspace Honestly I didn't know the F35 had vectored thrust!?!? I mean I know the nozzle rotates for VTOL but didn't know that. Well that will explain that tight ass turn. Thanks for the info.
Woody 5326 I could be wrong but from what I understand although it doesn't have true supermaneuverability it certainly seemed like it used it during that hard 180°.
Mach1Airspace Yeah, I've been looking up the VT for the F35 and its not looking like what the SU's and the F22 have. But still that turn he made looks like he had one. I found a video of a maneuver the F35 did and they said the SU's and the F22 can't duplicate it. Ill see if I can find it again and sed you the link.
The F-35 does not have vectored thrust. The F-22 has 2D vectored thrust and will definitely outmaneuver the F-35 in a dogfight. The-F-22 is also much faster, and can cruise at much higher altitudes. It is specifically an air dominance aircraft. The F-35 can perform very High AOA turns, but because of its weight takes a little longer to recover than the F-22. The F-22 on the other hand with its vectored thrust, can basically just do whatever it wants.
Everyone who listens to Pierre Sprey knows this is fake, the F-35 can't turn like that 'cause it's a fat turkey!!!{sarcasm} OMG that first run was amazing, not a great turn for WVR A2A because it lost way to much energy, but it was none-the-less an incredible display of high AOA maneuvering, big key though was how it accelerated out of the turn that was just as impressive as the turn itself...
Super Hornet is actually superior in close range WVR A2A over F-15s and F-16s ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-k3b-b762QRY.html Super Hornet's high AoA+minimum turn radius advantage holding it's own against F-15's high energy turn rate advantage dogfight example
0:28 how on earth did the pilot manage to do that? That's some pretty incredible footage you got right here. Subscribed, looking forward to other videos.
No. Stabs è il nomignolo comune per gli stabilizzatori di coda. Questa è una cosa che ho ereditato leggendo i vari forum di appassionati. "full body lift" è un concetto aerodinamico tra l'altro di origine anglosassone, quindi penso sia corretto chiamarlo con il nome originale, appunto. Spinta/peso come intuibile dallo "/" significa rapporto. Appunto, rapporto spinta:peso (Thrust to weight ratio).
