Identified another problem F-35. Now in the fuel tanks

227
Another technological flaw has been revealed in the multipurpose fighter of the new generation F-35, which was previously praised by the American media. Barely there were reports that Washington was going to spend another 2 billion dollars to bring to the pilot's seat, which is now capable of injuring a pilot with a body weight less than 61 kg, as new information about the need to eliminate errors began to be published in the press.

Identified another problem F-35. Now in the fuel tanks


Rossiyskaya Gazeta with reference to the information portal World Military Power writes that the American military aircraft F-35 showed serious problems in the fuel tanks. The manufacturing company said that the modification of the fuel tanks needs urgent improvement. Details as to exactly which problems in the fuel tanks were revealed by the developers are not reported. But it is reported that Lockheed Martin demanded that the US Department of Defense allocate additional funds in the amount of almost 29 million dollars to eliminate these problems.

Among the American experts, rumors have spread that representatives of the developer company are doing everything to increase government funding for aircraft development. It is known that all work on creating F-35 has already spent (attention!) Over 100 billions of dollars. This suggests that the cost of one F-35 aircraft reaches 110 million dollars, while the car still remains "raw."

          And where do they go? Score on the F-35 and start a tender for a new plane? This is still a lot of money, and most importantly several (maybe even tens) years of development. And the army will be all with the same F-16. Lockheed Martin managers already understand that the military can’t get anywhere from them, so the state budget is being milked.

                F-35 is a fighter-bomber, like the F-16, and it has been working quite well for 50 years with a single-engine scheme.

                  Well, you exaggerated about the F-16! feel
                  General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon is an American fourth-generation multi-functional fighter. Designed in 1974 by General Dynamics. It was commissioned in 1979, and in 1993 General Dynamics sold its aircraft manufacturing business to Lockheed Corporation (currently Lockheed Martin).
                  F-16, due to its versatility and relatively low cost, is the most massive fourth-generation fighter (more than 2014 aircraft were built in June 4540) and is successful in the international arms market (it is in service with 25 countries). The last of the 2231 F-16s for the US Air Force were transferred to the customer in 2005. The upgraded F-16 will be produced for export at least until mid-2017.

                  single-engine scheme is ineffective, and call the f-16 a 4-generation aircraft?! rather 3 ++, 4p it became after modernization. f-35 can hardly be attributed to 5p precisely because of low maneuverability, even compared to the su-30, rather in terms of armament, it refers to 5p.

                Americans have a different experience.
                Once the single-engine YF-16 won the competition against the twin-engine YF-17, simply "blowing" it in all respects. And he became one of the best fighters of our time.
                Almost 45 years since the first roll-out and so many upgrades, not a single aircraft in this class and purpose has yet been made ...
                Therefore, they can afford to consider a single-engine scheme more necessary.

                  After that, the IF17 fighter smoothly turned into a successful attack aircraft / front-line bomber FA18. Nothing was wasted. In my opinion, many of the technical tasks and solutions of f35 have not been tested anywhere before. The percentage of new solutions in this aircraft is extremely high. The Americans, having worked on the technology on it, will most likely quite painlessly create the next car, already much more advanced. And f35 will be sold (forcibly) to their partners, so to speak. They’ll buy it anyway. Nothing will be wasted. So instead of gloating it is worth considering what issues and technologies are being worked out on this ugly duckling. A similar story was in the USSR, from the ugly duckling tu22 to the magnificent tu22m3.

                The trick is that the engine of this notorious single-engine design is the same as the twin-engine F-22. They simply repeated the same successful twist of the F-15 and F-16. This unification drastically reduced the cost of both fighters and allowed them to conquer the market. They are doing everything correctly, and they took into account the mistake with the F-18. And the engine is excellent in itself, if there is a version of the F-35 vertical takeoff, where 80% of the aircraft parts are standard from the "land"

                I would agree with your remark if the F-35 were not in the series. Facts of the combat use of it 9 years after adoption are there? Estimates of real combat use, real effectiveness, are there?
                I would agree that, they say, yes, talk about talk, rumors about rumors and other nonsense. But there are no real facts at all. Considering that at the moment the United States is involved in several military conflicts, let us compare the situation with the Phantom (by the way, also, at one time, a former breakthrough aircraft):
                F-4 Phantom II. Developer - McDonnell Douglas. The first flight was May 27, 1958. Start of operation 1961.
                The Phantom was in production from 1958 to 1979 and a total of 5195 cars were built. 5057 of them were manufactured in St. Louis, Missouri, USA and another 138 were built under license at Mitsubishi factories in Japan. The peak production of F-4 occurred in 1967, when the McDonnell plant produced 72 aircraft per month. The US Air Force was armed with 2874 Phantoms, while the Navy and the Marine Corps - 1264 vehicles.
                -------
                Vietnam was the first war involving Phantoms. After the "Tonkin incident" - the clash of the American destroyers Maddox and Turner Joy with Vietnamese torpedo boats on August 2, 1964.

                For comparison, what do we have about the F-35 (briefly, without water):
                F-35 Lightning II. Developer Lockheed Martin Corporation.
                The design choice for the F-35 was made in 2001 as a result of a competition for the JSF program.
                The first flight is December 15, 2006. Start of operation - since 2012 it has been operated for training purposes. Initial combat readiness: US ILC - July 31, 2015 [2]. Full year 17, planned: US Air Force - August 2016, US Navy - August 2018.

                From the above information, we have a logical conclusion: as soon as the US military acquires a new convenient "club", they do not miss the opportunity to immediately apply it. The F-35 is clearly not considered such a baton. request We have not rumors, but facts of life: they made a piece of iron, but they won’t decide where to put it in! Yes
                So allusions about a suitcase without a handle and a running dog with a tail in the wheel look very true. laughing good

                Soviet-Soviet.
                Let's take the early 30s: Grabin's divisional gun, after being put into service, was brought into service for 3 years, and it was never brought up and replaced with a new USV model. The DK machine gun, after being adopted, was brought into service for 8 years - and finally received the DShK. The DS-39 machine gun was put into service ... and removed back. T-26 tanks were adopted with unfinished engines and non-armored steel hulls. BT tanks were brought to mind only for the BT-7 model. To force the plant and design bureau to finalize the T-34 after it was put into service, it took the threat of stopping production. The KV tank was being finalized already during the war - before the war, Zaltsman and Kotin scored all the requirements of the GABTU, excuses that it would be easier for them to give a new tank. The leader "Leningrad" was accepted by the fleet ... and went back to the plant. where he stood for another 2 years at the outfitting wall.
                Maybe something changed after the war? No. The same aircraft were regularly first put into service, and then finalized to the requirements of the original TK. The destroyer pr. 956 entered trials without weapons. 2 BOD pr. 1155 were adopted by the fleet without air defense systems, 2 more - with a half air defense systems (on the "Kulakov", for example, instead of the missing "dagger" they recently stuck a "bend"). Sam SAM "Dagger" was adopted 8 years after the inclusion of the lead 1155 in the fleet.
                And the "icing on the cake" is an epic with the R-39, when the head SSBN of pr.941 first entered service without the SLBM adopted for service, and then received "temporary" SLBMs (R-39 and R-39U), which were adopted only because SSBNs have already been built for them. In reality, however, the military specifications for the new SLBM did not correspond to them - only the "bark" corresponded to them.

            These are two completely different aircraft, if we compare it with the Raptor. And the FU-35 with the declared generation 5, with the SU-35 generation 4 ++. Monitor their comparison on the web, you will learn a lot of interesting things, for one thing, do not forget about the comparison in price. hi !

              "on the creation of the F-35 already spent (attention!) more 100 billion dollars. This suggests that the cost one aircraft F-35 reaches 110 million dollars "
              Or price не 110 lyam, or there are already about 1000 pieces built (figase-small series)

      F-35 has a hundred thousand faults


      Silaev supported us. He only asked me: -Are you sure there is no other way? "" Of course, I am sure, although there is another: to serially release hundreds and thousands of mediocre
      fighters, and if there is no war, no one will know about their mediocrity. But we are working on that rainy day when our weapons should be at the highest level. and therefore there is no other way! "

      Do you know when and who said this and why? Simonov in 1979, after 10 years of work on the su-27, when the plane was ready and mass production was ready... He crossed out a huge part of the work, he just broke his stone flower like Danila the master. And they made a new plane. Changed such fundamental elements of the aircraft layout as the shape and area of ​​the wing, the configuration of the cross-sections of the fuselage head, center section and engine nacelles, and the placement of the empennage. The cycle of fine-tuning the engine from the first test to the receipt of the certificate of passing state tests on August 6, 1985 took 11 long years. Are we proud of the "drying"? And we are doing the right thing, just remember how this pride is given.
      Bad, then F-35? Yes, only to create their technology, we have to push our horn to the fullest. At one time, we created the welding of a titanium center section for the very same
      the "rejected" first option. Was she lost for nothing? I envy the Americans for this - they can afford the luxury of building such aircraft, but we have no money, and they have lost people.

      Lockheed Martin! That's who really benefits from this Santo Barbara with the F35. I am more than sure that 75 percent of all "misadventures" were planned by Lockheed's managers (undeniably talented people who bring a "pretty penny" to their corporation).
      But you should not throw hats. All shortcomings will be eliminated, otherwise they (Lockheed) will not see more contracts, and these people will not miss the profit. And last, but perhaps most importantly, more than 170 of them have already been stamped, and this is what the Yankees call "small-scale production". So if even a third of these machines will not be able to use their weapons due to problems with the "firmware" and a third will turn into a torch right in the air due to fuel tanks, then the remaining amount will be enough to make a nightmare, even Syria.

This suggests that the cost of one F-35 aircraft reaches 110 million dollars, while the car still remains "raw."

        The Israelis very successfully mastered the money.
        Israel has ordered 33 of these aircraft, under very "specific" conditions:
        The first batch of 19 cars cost the Jews $ 2,7 billion, but Lockheed Martin pledged to purchase parts and components in Israel for the entire program for $ 4 billion, without Israel’s investment in the aircraft development program! I must say that these conditions shocked other US partners in the program, in particular, Norway, Denmark and Italy.
        The next order included 14 aircraft for already 2,8 billion (+ option for 17 cars) - in response, it seems, the program of return purchases was expanded to 9 billion dollars.
        In particular, Israeli companies supply for the F-35 (I repeat - not only for their own - for everyone!) Wings, helmet displays and composite elements for the fuselage ...
        The Israeli aircraft of modification "I" themselves will have differences in onboard electronics, in particular in electronic warfare systems. In addition, Israel plans to take part in the development of a 2-seater version of the aircraft.
        In total, the Israeli Air Force is going to buy 95 F-35.

                First of all, I'm not "Arosha", but Aron. Secondly, no one will buy an F-35B because one squadron does not change anything, and no one will complicate the logistics. Israeli airfields have long ago worked out a system with work with a partially damaged strip and its rapid restoration.

          According to some indirect signs, it can be assumed that the United States will reduce the number of purchased F-35s for itself, the question is how much. For Israel, the experience of operating a very high-tech aircraft will only benefit and money will not be wasted.

          Ilya (Hello), in my opinion, the F-35 class. Problems:
          1. Universalization (Istr., Assault., Bomber). Specialized aircraft are always better.
          2. Stealth technology. On October 7 (or November), the Americans were surprised that the Russians saw and intercepted their UAVs in Syria. But UAVs are also made using stealth technologies and composite materials. In addition, they are at times !!! smaller in size. Are they so invisible as Americans praise them? Their ESR is 0,001 sq.m. somehow hard to believe. Moreover, if in front of the AFAR stands pl. min 1 sq.m.?. As you know, for each element of the AFAR (and there are hundreds, if not a thousand) of 3 failures. And this thick wire bundle turns out, it also does not display radio waves?
          3. Super-maneuverability of 5 generations and does not smell. Do not engage in close combat, rely only on electronics.
          4. Aerodynamics. Other versions also "suffered" because of the vertical. The plane is too "bloated" to show excellent performance characteristics in aerodynamics.
          5. The engine is really good, unless of course they lie Amer., But he is one. Therefore, the issue of accident rate and speed is open - only explo. it will show.
          6. Electronics amer. No wonder they are boasting. But against it there are electronic warfare. And without it, the plane, going to bl. the battle is simply no with the Su or MiG-29.
          7. In operation, will it be affordable?
          8. Once the Americans have put so many of them (already for a hundred), why won't they try it in Syria? They just have a place there. Bomb secretly from the Russians, and experience.
          9. Internal niches for weapons are small. Will have to go outside - no stealth.
          These are the thoughts. I do not want to say that he is bad. The Pentagon has invested too much in it, and we must understand that they have nowhere to go - they will refine it to an acceptable option. hi

            But something that the MQ-9 Reaper is a stealth ?????? belay Yes, he has one straight wingspan of 20 meters in size, he is probably one of the largest UAVs, with a complete absence of measures to reduce visibility, except that there is a percentage of composites in the hull, but without RPM, it does little.

              Iwind. So it’s neither me, but the Americans are surprised that the Russians are tracking their UAVs. You can even find articles on this subject these days (7.10 (11?). 15). And I don’t think that the Americans use for the intelligence purposes those whoppers about whom you write. Somehow I did not read reports about the bombing from UAVs in Syria.
              In my opinion, these stealth against "weak" countries somehow, but against the Russian Federation will not get through. There are powerful ground-based radars, space, and electronic warfare systems. It is enough to track home airfields. In extreme cases, an observer within a radius of 3 km. from the airfield to land with the phone.
              And what is "lazy" to argue for the rest of the points? Universalization, one engine (albeit powerful and there are no analogues), no super-maneuverability - does not do credit to this aircraft. hi

                it is they (there are almost no others there) flying from Av Incirlik. The attacks were and are being applied regularly both in Syria and in Iraq, since there are fewer risks when using UAVs. Except for journalists, no one was surprised.

                It is no more versatile than the F-16. No one ever asked him for super-maneuverability - this is to destroy a bomber.
                The number of bombs is similar to the actual combat load of the F-16.
                Why drags them to Siru - now we need airplanes and mechanics to train and complete the tests. In 2016, 68 aircraft will be commissioned; they need to have time to prepare personnel and pilots. In Syria, UAVs and F-16s will do just fine.

                  So where is the suspension on the UAV? This is intelligence. Please note: the UAV is licked, probably from a composite, the dimensions and weight are in no way comparable to the UAV. I sat on the P-12 (Yenisei), and then on the P-18. The helicopters were visible - they asked me to fly higher. And this composite "sausage" - I don't even know - electronics, engine and fuel tank - everything that can display a radio wave.
                  So for UAV reconnaissance is a sweet deal. And let's wait with the stealth to draw conclusions (I have in the form of technology using a composite, not a paintwork). In fact, nothing is clear. The only one from composite F-22 is discontinued. You can argue to hoarseness, but it makes no sense.
                  But the fighter must be able to lead a maneuverable neighbor. the fight. Or how? Bomber. The internal volume holds 2 thousand-pound bombs and a pair of missiles. ALL!!! Is that a stealth technology bomber? And with the attack aircraft I’m generally silent. Therefore, I have a question about universalization. Like all others, let’s wait than argue pointlessly. But all my questions make sense.
                  The central part, where the mechanics for the vertical line should be, is the same for everyone - according to your scheme.

                    The pendant is visible on the first vidio. But what difference does it make with the MQ-9 ripper - even in the code you can see that it’s a shock drone — intelligence is RQ. It simply has no traces of stealth technology from the word at all. I don’t even understand what doubts might be. More anti-stealth object presto can not be found in the air (well, except for the B-52). Length: 11 meters wingspan 20 meteors. To claim that it is inconspicuous is still a brad. Look at all aircraft with stealth technologies.

                    If you believe that a fighter should conduct a maneuverable battle, this is good. But others don’t think so (United States Air Force). There are all-angle rockets for this.

                    And by the way 2 bombs 2500 pound or 8 SDB and 2 rockets. This is enough for stele configurations (tasks of the first day) the maximum number of missiles for BLOCKA 3F-12 from 2017 will go into operation. . F-16 extremely rarely takes more as the most 3 lifting pylons occupy the PTB, another 2 occupy the navigation pod and targeting pod. Without this kit, the F-16 will not fly far for good; it needs to add EW containers, since the F-35s are built-in.
                    And then the attack aircraft? His goal in the near firing hold is to drop bombs from a height of 5 km.

And you only have drones. When you develop an airplane yourself, launch it into a series and test it on Arabs with Kalash without air defense equipment - then you are welcome to compare your work and Sushki and MiGs.

              You know, for some reason they do not report to me about the passage of state tests of the Su-35. We must arrange a thrashing, I will shoot the guilty. I don’t know how in Europe and the USA, in Russia, if some kind of technique and equipment is supplied to combat units, I repeat to combat units, and not training and test ones, then it has already passed state tests. Technicians undergoing trial operation cannot be supplied to combat units. As for the media - you pay attention to yours, what nonsense they are. I no longer laugh - I want to cry out of pity for you, what a pile of stuff "your most honest in the world" is shoving you.

                This is usually reported.
                for example, "the armament of the Su-27 was adopted by a government decree dated August 23, 1990 "

                Russia, if some kind of machinery and equipment is supplied to combat units, I repeat to combat units, and not educational and test ones, it means that it has already passed state tests. Testing equipment cannot be delivered to combat units

                Exactly the same news was a couple of years ago when the Su-35 entered the 23rd Fighter Aviation Regiment. Now he entered 22 and that's it.
                about the su-27. as an analogue of the fact that in "Cannot equipment undergoing trial operation be supplied to combat units"
                “By that time, the Su-27 had already been in operation for 5 years. From combat units, the first in June 1985 to receive the Su-27 were pilots of 60 IAP of the Far Eastern Military District (Dzemgi). By 1989. Su-27 aircraft were in service in 16 combat units of the Air Force and Air Defense Forces of the USSR. "

                    So once again, the presence of an aircraft in combat units or avia regiments is not an indicator of the passage of gci and adoption of weapons. Read carefully
                    The Su-27 was adopted by a government decree from August 23 1990 years, only after all the main shortcomings identified in the tests were eliminated. By this time, the Su-27 was in operation for 5 years. Of the combat units, the first in June 1985, Su-27 pilots received 60 IAPs of the Far Eastern Military District (Dzemgi). It was 1989 Su-27 aircraft were in service in 16 combat units of the Air Force and Air Defense Forces of the USSR. "
                    Yes And f-22 had a similar procedure, at the time of adoption was in service on several drill air bases. This is standard practice in aviation.

                        No, the same f-35s have had such conditions for already about 3 years. I have already written more than once that adoption is a specific document and passage of the GSI. But I’ll repeat it again (I hope for the last time).
                        "The Su-27 was adopted by a government decree of August 23, 1990, only after all the main shortcomings identified in the tests were eliminated." - this means the aircraft was put into service. Prior to that, trial operation.

      They and the F-35 are not bad at it. Lockheed leads an uninterruptedly open program to create this machine. Of course, technologies are not disclosed, but problems are not hidden. By the way, the problem that is being discussed here is literally cheap for Lockheed-29 million $. In general, the F-35 project reached the final segment.
      The F-35 international fighter pilot training center based on the US Air Force Hatch (Arizona) already has 34 aircraft of this type, flightglobal.com reports January 13. The first fighter arrived at the base in March 2014.
      Currently, in addition to the American base, there are F-35s with identification marks of the Australian and Norwegian air forces, training for the Australian, Norwegian and Italian flight and technical personnel is under way, instructor pilots and technicians from Japan, Israel, the Netherlands, and Turkey will appear here soon. possibly Denmark and Canada. Ultimately, six F-35 squadrons of 144 aircraft and 14 full-flight simulators will be formed in Luke. F-16 squadrons also operate at the base, where Singapore and Taiwan pilots and technicians are trained.
      The first F-35 flight at this base took place on March 15, 2015. Lockheed, together with assembly facilities in Italy and Japan, plans to build 2322 fighter version F-35A

          Already.
          By order of the Commandant of the Marine Corps, General Joseph Dunford, dated 1.08.2015, the VMFA-121 "Green Knights" squadron was recognized as ready for overseas deployment and participation in hostilities.
          According to the results of the inspection held in July, it was recognized that the squadron meets the requirements presented a year ago, namely, it has a 10 ° F-35B version of Block 2B capable of carrying out the following missions at the basic level - direct support of troops, air strikes in the near and far rear of the enemy , ensuring air domination over the theater of operations and armed reconnaissance. The following types of weapons are supported: AIM-120 ° C medium-range air-to-air missiles, GBU-12 (227 kg, laser-guided) and GBU-32 (454 kg, satellite-guided) guided bombs; all on internal suspension.
          It is stated that the capabilities were confirmed during a number of recent exercises in conjunction with the ground forces of the ILC, as well as during operational tests on the Wasp universal amphibious assault ship. In particular, recently it was reported that the F-35B link during the tests won out in a battle with 9 fighters of the previous generation.
          The first overseas deployment of VMFA-121, now deployed in Yuma, pcs. Arizona, scheduled for 2017, in Iwakuni, Japan. In the same year, the first regular deployment of aircraft is planned on a universal amphibious assault ship of the Marine Corps.
          It is stated that at the moment the Corps has trained more than 50 pilots and 500 technicians. The next ILC squadrons planning to undergo rearmament on the F-35B are VMA-211 (FY 2016) and VMFA-122 (2018).

        About the "great" problem with the fuel tanks.
        This is just a contract for solving problems, and by the way, not with a fuel tank, but with a high pressure valve. During the tests, it was found that with certain flight conditions There is a low possibility of tank damage due to high pressure. In December, we conducted tests with a new valve that successfully passed the tests, here is its installation and contract. Which will eliminate these restrictions.
        "Last December, the program successfully flight-tested new pressure relief valves that would remove those flight restrictions"

        The same situation. The risk of bailouts has been and will always be. Even the K-36 chair at low speeds (up to 900km / h), the probability of a fracture of the spine is 6,6% - this is one of the best chairs.

        With Martin-Baker's US16E seats, the situation is similar to the risk of injury at a weight below 61.7kg and a low speed higher than the US Air Force standard of 5%. Interestingly, the same limitations have long existed for other F-15, F-16 and 12 other modules that use the ACES II seat. and
        for the US Navy, the NACES SJU-17 seat is designed for pilots weighing from 61.7kg to 96.6kg. These seats are installed in the Boeing F / A-18E / F Super Hornet and EA-18G Growler.
        But for some reason this does not bother anyone, but when they wrote about the same restriction about the F-35, the release began about nothing.
        http://www.dodig.mil/pubs/documents/DODIG-2015-090.pdf
        If for ACES II the correction is not even planned, then for Martin-Baker's US16E it is planned to decide before 2017 (summer), to remove the restriction until 2018. Moreover, only one possible pilot who could theoretically participate in the F-35 program was under the flight restriction.

      Do not trifle, I think for such purposes, platinum is too cheap metal, rather some of the rare earths. In general, from the very beginning, when they voted about the problems with the catapult, I was perplexed in what the problem was. well, the pilots - the guys are not large for the most part, is it really difficult to drop an appendage corresponding to the current weight of the pilot before flying into the seat in the backside? why bother reconstruction of the catapult. Well, it’s clear that here you need to squeeze out the loot, but these guys should be controlled by someone. Is it really that way.

        Well, about a year and a half ago, I watched how applicants went to Khabarovsk in flight schools, so small ones like my first-born were mainly recommended to fighters and attack aircraft. My example now weighs about 57-58 kg. Of course he is trying to gain weight, but in the Krasnodar School cadets are fed disgustingly, albeit abundantly.

    The Israelis very successfully mastered the money.
    Israel has ordered 33 of these aircraft, under very "specific" conditions:
    The first batch of 19 cars cost the Jews $ 2,7 billion, but Lockheed Martin pledged to purchase parts and components in Israel for the entire program for $ 4 billion, without Israel’s investment in the aircraft development program! I must say that these conditions shocked other US partners in the program, in particular, Norway, Denmark and Italy.
    The next order included 14 aircraft for already 2,8 billion (+ option for 17 cars) - in response, it seems, the program of return purchases was expanded to 9 billion dollars.
    In particular, Israeli companies supply for the F-35 (I repeat - not only for their own - for everyone!) Wings, helmet displays and composite elements for the fuselage ...
    The Israeli aircraft of modification "I" themselves will have differences in onboard electronics, in particular in electronic warfare systems. In addition, Israel plans to take part in the development of a 2-seater version of the aircraft.
    In total, the Israeli Air Force is going to buy 95 F-35.

    He is a Jew and a Jew in Lockhead ... Ato Serdyukov, Serdyukov ...)) He still needs to grow to a similar level))) Buy these pepelats from the USA for the money of the USA themselves !!! Yes, on the condition that the United States will buy from Jews something for three times the amount !!! It is a masterpiece...! ordinary Americans should at least be embarrassed.
    PS Therefore, it’s not the fault of the forum users from Israel this device, a free device ...) F 35 for them as a bonus.

    It is very interesting to read the opinions of the pilots who are being prepared for the F-35. There are many negative reviews, but these are not simple pilots, but who have already flown a lot and in many ways. They constantly minus me for criticizing this plane, and I will criticize it, but on the other hand, I am even glad that this product will oppose our VKS in the sky, and not some perfect plane, as foreign tourists praise it here. In the end, Google will help everyone, well, there is not a lot of breakthrough technologies, but there is an obvious dead end, where a great desire to make an "all-in-one" plane and not a desire to admit this strategic mistake in time has led. Although who admits a mistake when hundreds of billions of dollars are at stake. Let them finish, and the plane and the money, and the news of failures makes me happy. This is our enemy, after all, and I'm not going to rejoice at his success. And I don't understand those people who praise someone else's weapons and are directly touched by what high-tech means of murder the Americans have released. For me, it’s better that none of them took off.

    There were hardly reports that Washington was going to spend another 2 billion dollars to bring to mind the pilot's seat.


    I also remembered this when I saw the title of the article ...

    Among American experts, rumors spread that representatives of the developer company are doing everything to increase government funding for the development of the aircraft.


    "Experts" just now have their sight? Dereban the state budget for most "private offices", which is Lockheed Martin, is a sacred cause ...

    Nobody canceled or defeated corruption in the West, it was simply renamed ...

    Apparently, considering the Latin designations (lat. Corrumpere - to corrupt, lat. Corruptio - bribery, damage) "insufficiently tolerant".

    Normal move, how much have they already spent on creation and further on completion? The figure caresses the ear! And in my opinion this is not the last spending on bringing the found shortcomings of the machine. Soon the amount will be such that launching the car into normal operation will be economically unprofitable, and the launch of our car and the subsequent comparison in Economics and performance characteristics will play a role. The Americans in their repertoire, I mean theirs the best tanks in the world, which "pass" any swamps and deserts, and do not "burn" from the decommissioned RPG-7.

    2- any Norwegians with Italians and other Danes buy a plane (and do not tell tales that the government of these countries supposedly bought bad bullshit Uncle Sam, then these rulers would simply tear their own taxpayer voters like a hot-water bottle, turning them into political corpses) .
