a very well made video, enjoyed watching that.

Well produced, I liked the video clip and its well composed with the music.

Well done, great score.

Night Before a Project dont worry its a great video cant wait to get a chance at a fghter pilot

Military Know-how, expertise, technology are surreal in Dear State Of Israel, really. Fantastic.

@newmanfrigan im from england and love our euro fighter, but being unbiased and witnessed the performance of the f22 over here, i can admit it is number 1 of the world, f35 i can say is awsome and glad we contributed to its manufacture..

The Soyuz/Tumansky R-15BD-300 is an axial flow, single shaft turbojet with afterburning capabilities. The engine provides massive thrust and high performance at altitude, but at a cost. At dry thrust the engine could produce 7,500 kilograms force (73.5 kN, 16,500 lbf); with afterburners the output is 11,200 kilograms force (110 kN, 24,700 lbf). This allowed speeds of up to mach 3.2 in the Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25 (which used two engines).The MiG-25 was able to supercruise.

Thank you well put my friend, finally some logic that makes sense

@EnglishTurbines Yes of course but, i amean if you use in land runways who needs that kind a wing area? Do you think the B verison is superior?

@NatedogJr is air to air combat not part of its role or will it just try and turn and run away if it sees another enemy jet?

@EnglishTurbines I doubt giving it canards would help improve manueverability. Its good at rolling but do you think it can do a powerful sudden posistive 8 to 9 gs without destroying itself? The Eurofighter can pull major g forces in seconds while from seeing certain vids of this aircraft the plane pitches slowly.

@torque2802 A multirole combat aircraft is an aircraft designed to act in at least two different roles in combat: 1. the primary role is usually a fighter-hence, it is as often called a multirole fighter. 2. the secondary role is usually air-to-surface attack. These two roles can be named "major roles". Sub-roles are Close Air Strikes, air interdiction, suppression of air defense, air recon, forward air control, electronic warfare.

@orlock20 so what your saying is that in about 2028 jets will be pure air to air combat vehicles and the military will hav new ways to provide precision fire support to ground troops?

@nexus1g And what would that be? In what ways does any model of F-15 posses an advantage over it?

Brilliant!!

@4V14T10N You can use B and C from runways if you want to. Its the avionics package thats different I think....in all 3 models.

@NatedogJr Yes, it's a multi-role fighter. It has to meet both threats. (Will the USN have anything better for air to air?) In my understanding, the F-35 is built to increase survivability when faced with increasingly lethal air and surface threats. If it cannot operate in hostile air space or confront new air to air threats, it hasn't addressed the shortcomings of the legacy fighters it will replace.

@4V14T10N No, the big wing C variant is for US Naval. UK is only interested in the vertical landing F35B variant, although the carrier landing regime has yet to be met, its not yet good enough...:(

@EnglishTurbines The Joint Dual Role Air Dominance Missile or (JDRADM) is a scramjet missle that will be developed for both Air to Air and Air to Ground with a top speed of Mach 6 at altitude. The pilots found the F-35 loves to accelerate and go fast. And does a stealth aircraft that is a strike fighter need supercruise? If it did then why didn't we fit a B-2 to be as fast as a B-1R.

I hope you got an a, you should, this video is awesome.

Nice technology! STOVL flight, carrying lots of weapons, is a game-changer in places where we will have to fight in the future. Flying from well-conditioned protected air bases is often not available. This aircraft allows superior air power to be placed where it normally cannot, to do things that are difficult even in the best of conditions. I'm not so sure of the F-22's "boutique role" but this plane definitely has a place.

@EnglishTurbines Ok i got it, so is RAF planning to use STOVL on carriers but why not C variant are there to big in size for relaitvely small UK carriers(relatively to US carriers) and by small i am not meaning anyting rude... So with smaller jets RAF is planning to have more jets on a carrier? I mean is it about quantity...

@nitojo7 Short operating ranges? The F-35B operates on internal fuel(which has the smallest by far due to fan) can go as far as an F-16 with 2 fuel tanks, the F-35C can exceed the F/A-18 SuperHornets in range. The F-35A has a gun, F-35C is looking to get a gun once the initial blocks are out and possibly the weight issue is fixed.

@TheVictornegrete do you work with the airforce or something

@wodanowitz What "looks"? Why is thier braking system electrical, tied into the computer? It doesn't need to be.

@squizzoo Yeah, drive/fly by wire worked real great in those Toyotas that went out of control, and that Air France 447 that went down in the Atlantic.

Great Job Chris! Ben Riggi, USAF '71/'75

Anyone know about how much altitude they drop when they do a roll?

@ISinisterI Remember the strategic reason for the Harrier's invention: Runways. You can't use conventional jets if the enemy bombs your runways; carriers are vulnerable to anti-ship missiles; and far-flung airbases add flight time to the theatre. If a nation has STOVL / VTOL capable planes (like F35s) that can operate from a makeshift airbase close to the front lines, that's a huge strategic advantage. They're like gunships, but jets, and can be hidden on the ground and moved wherever needed.

@benrodgers44 - Because, the Harrier was developed in the 1960's ( by the way, the U.S. Marines also use the Harrier in an American version and it TOO is subsonic ) and uses a turbo fan engine which is ducted through four exhaust vents - two on either side of the fuselage. These small duct openings are far too small to allow use of an afterburner and prevent the capacity to push supersonic EXCEPT in a dive. Where as the F-35 has a traditional wide open tail "turkey feather" exhaust.

@bigchiefmingingbolok the face of war will have changed beyond all recognition by then, my friend.

I think you did a great job on the video. You should be proud of yourself. I have been following the progress of the F-35. I even have an RC model of one. Did you use Windows Movie Maker to make the video? Keep doing what you are doing. It looks great. Wayne

@4V14T10N ...I think they have a vested interest in the B Variant of F35. For sure the Engine Lift System when you consider the USMC will have the F35B variant. Thats a lot of business for Rolls Royce from the USA.

@bliss0512 Cheers wasn't aware of that, suppose if there's all the radar tech to spot IED's etc from the air it follows on.. Pity tho because all these new stealth aircraft and Naval designs look really cool eh!!

@EnglishTurbines We should be on the same team, this is exciting for both our countries, lots of hard work has gone into this program. Canadian Developmental Avionics. yahoo baby!

yeah but how do you think it will hold up against future J series, like the J-20, all of which employ X-29 technology mixed with x-35 tech.

@xKENN3DYx Funny, didn't the Harrier have thrust vectoring before it?

@EnglishTurbines Well i wonder is it about the size and quantity, i mean to fit more jets or just because they have a lot of arangements and adjusting so that they trust that jet better and they know it better in and out.

Yes, you certainly right:) But what must it be for one thing, even if only brings down such a small laser is a drone?

Congratulations Dear F1ghtingFalcon, wonderful movie in a beautiful day on Sky of the Spectacullar Middle East. Fly over Dear State Of Israel is Fantastic always, honestly.

@2BarKawi The Wright brothers made their first successful test flights on 17 December 1903. Their flights are recognised by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI), the standard setting and record-keeping body for aeronautics and astronautics, as "the first sustained and controlled heavier-than-air powered flight".[19] By 1905, the Wright Flyer III was capable of fully controllable, stable flight for substantial periods

@torque2802 And yes, it has been discontinued off the production line because it hit the limit of requests for 187. The reason why they took it off was NOT because of problems it was because of military spending cuts.

@torque2802, the A-10 is suppose to be replaced in 2028. Nobody knows what CAS will look like. The Apache D block III ability allows the co pilot to control sensors on drones so it can engage in CAS from maximum missile distance or pass off the targets to other weapon systems such as artillery or even nearby tanks.

@goleafbudsgo... Eurofighter uses Rolls Royce RJ2000 engines, we also have a big chunk of that business also. Especially when you consider UAE have puchased 144 alone...and thats just one country. You will also find some BAE avionic systems in your F35. Do you know what the total on order is for all 3 F35 variants?

Hope they iron all the kinks out of this fighter. Excellent design and a great step up from the harrier. I being english would love the uk to adopt them to our air force.

What were the "Destroyers" ? Tugboats in drydock?

@MacPete187 The electro bit might be from the Matrix but the opening and ending is part of the Enigma Variations by Sir Edward Elgar

@TheARMAProductions We are not yet using low frequency radar for all, are we?

This squadron might come to Boise, Idaho/ Mountain AFB. Some in Boise are protesting that the F35 noise will be prohibitive... Is it much louder than the A10, F16 that we have launch regularly??

what kind of plane do you guys think they will make next??

@mgdisthebest do they air maneuvers are restricted by the g force limit of the pilot not the plane itself. so yes planes without pilots can do more tricks than a one with a pilot

@xKENN3DYx umm the mig-29 has thrust vectoring, same with su33 su27 i think su30 su35 and su 37

@NoOne3234 A Kopp fan I see. Kopp loves to push the whole lumpy underside line as well. The underside of the fuselage is designed to maximise its high AOA ability (53 degrees departure aoa at combat speeds, very impressive). What Kopp didn't account for is that the F-35 as you said has a very good EW system and excellent networking. The lumpy underside of the aircraft can be turned away from threat radars by subtley banking 5-10 degrees.

@TheARMAProductions Why don´t you guys continue to use the harrier then?

@ISinisterI A UCAV is like a remote control plane isnt it so maybe its possible for a powerful country to disrupt the signal between transmitter and reciever. Just a thought. But i suppose you guys have already thought of this. No one wants a plane that the enemy might just flip a switch and make it crash or worse.

the video is cool but i wanna know about the name of music could u tell me whats the name of music I forgot it ...thanx

@TheARMAProductions Actually, the new engine is evidently much more efficient and cheaper. And, actually the F-35 isn't in trouble at all. Carswell and several other LM plants have begun installing assembly-line equipment, and are in the final testing stages on all versions of the plane. What gives you the impression that they're grounded? I saw three of the Carswell aircraft take off last week. They're behind schedule but most of the design kinks have been ironed out.

@FXWorldBeater I agree with you that legacy fighters won't do well against modern air defenses and that a VLO airframe will be important, but believe it has limitations on such a small plane. It will not prevent near-future air defense systems from locating the f-35. There are several VHF target acquisition radars on the market. These should get scattering in the resonant region and should see the f-35 very well.

Is it true that a turbine blade of F-135 engine cracked or chipped? If true, who's making the engine parts?

@OlderG0ds I agree that the technology has improved but so has the detection methods. Even the USA purchased the Tesla radar responsible for tracking the F 117 so I expect they have been developing it since then.

whats the title of the music used in this video?

@AllofStewie who developed this plane?

How much does each cost ???compared to f22 ?? f15?? anyone know ?

@nexus1g That incident was restricted to Guam, where the air is much more humid than in most other places. The F-22 is also a very new plane. It will take time to work out small bugs, but they will be worked out. That an F-15 isn't grounded by rain is due more to its 30+ years of service than its quality. By the time the F-22 is fully deployed and operational, the F-15 will be a thing of the past. And that day is fast approaching. You must have something better than a minor glitch.

Wow 3 conflicts, numerous sorties and missions, flying into heavily defended airspace time after time and only one was lost, not bad at all. You are somewhat right that stealth alone may not be enough in the future, that's why i suggest you read up on the f35 and realize it is not just a stealth plane. The f117 was spotted 60km away at most when the bomb bay doors opened, now a days if you detect a stealth plane at that distance, you probably have seconds to live

@torque2802, Yes. It looks like drones and helicopters will be the CAS vehicles of the future. There are several major flaws with jets and CAS. The two major ones are expense and timing. A lot of the expense in Afghanistan is due to jets providing CAS. The second problem is most CAS calls are called off because the enemy left before the jets got there. The loiter time for jets is about 15 minutes. The drones now can last 4-6 hours.

@KARASAWA40 Thats right, I said that, I also quoted the S-400 SAM. I also said, "when the F35 runs the guantlet across a network of these SAMs, let me know.....The USAF cant account for future threats, for the simple reason they dont know what those threats might be, or who from, or what hardware those threats might use.

@evildeathmonkey1 Actually, the STOVL / VTOL was being built for the Marines..not the Navy. The Navy is getting the F-35C which has larger wings with folding tips and a heavier undercarriage to support carrier landings. The STOVL / VTOL is the F-35B which is now on hold by Sec. Gates current budget cuts and to allow both the A nd C variants to get into production faster since they do not have the complex shaft driven lift fan assembly.

Lockheed consulted with Yakovlev engineers during the design phase of the F-35B's VTOL system. It wasn't a direct copy, but Yakovlev's experience with the Yak-141 definitely influenced the VTOL design of the F-35.

@WickedrWil The MiG-29 does not have thrust vectoring, only the OVT model had, but the standard MiG-29 does not. the Su-27 does not have, the Su-33 neither. The Su-37 was an experimental aircraft, not an operational one.

@EnglishTurbines Total orders are still speculation until final price is set, plus the type of involvement each country will partake in like parts production will affect the price of the JSF for each country. 2600 orders for all 3 variants together was the last we heard, but now there is interest from India, Israel and others plus the economy, most countries will take a wait and see approach. Canada has 1600+ employed and signed for parts production, this is why our government has given the ok.

@jeffmik2008 I don't know about the F/A-18, but I'm not sure why we're even retiring the F-15 (100+ kills to 0 losses).

@abduljakol1985 really? whats the name of the new aircraft

Well, your response is humble and convincing, so I accept your apology. Also, I apologize if I have offended you. Anyways, on the cost of the F-35, it would also cost a lot of money to keep up and keep producing current 4th gen fighters as they age. A thing about planes is they typically don't age well. Another reason for production of F-35s is to keep the USAF as the most powerful air force in the entire world. Russia, India, China and numerous other countries developing their own 5th gens.

@NatedogJr you have just given me a definition of multi role and air superiority fighters doesn't change the fact that the SU-27 is better in air-air combat than the F-35 which is what i said from the beginning so you saying all these definitions isn't really defending the F-35 more just a brochure for people looking to buy 1 and letting them know there should buy more

@avro1001 The F35 is a very good plane it has some growing pains much like the Arrow, but when it come thru its was superb

@TheARMAProductions There is actually 2+ T-50s at the mo. And have seen sources that say the F22 is vulnerable to rain and small arms fire. Yes the other projects are veiled in secrecy, but some info is availiable. Simulations of Sukhoi 35s against eurofighters came up badly for the EF2000, despite the 'jamming' the sukhois gout info from other sources to shoot them down. As much as I wish the best of luck to NATO and our projects, but from my sources, they are having problems (the F35 and F22).

@ResiusOnline I illustrated the differences between fly-away cost and development cost in my post. There was no need for you to argue that point. And, yes, it is just as effective. The F-15 has a 100% success rate in air superiority. You can't get better than that. So it is at the very least as effective.

AF F-22 fighter pilots say the exact same thing.The idea is to take out the targets before getting into any potential dog fighting range. It's really a marvelous air superiority fighter. The only problem is that if in a dog-fight situation, it really doesn't have much of an advantage over any aircraft like the Euro-fighter Typhoon. I expect that to be solved though.

@TheARMAProductions Our problems are monetary and political mainly. But is does mainly come down to this: These advanced projects/aircraft to my knowledge, have not faced REAL battle situations, and till then, we will not know whether the T-50 is better than the F22. there plans to be 200 in indian service, 200 in russian service and 400-600 exported. But seeing as you know a lot, and i'd like to expand my knowledge, what is the emphasis on the '6th gen'? and what is PIRATE?

Congratulations Dear Pilots of Israel, incredible movie on Sky of Dear State Of Israel.

I never said the AMRAAM uses its radar from launch. And yes, smokeless exhausts and all that. But, how exactly will the F35 lock onto an opponent to fire a missile?

@Timsalt3100 the f-35 was the primary replacement for our Harriers. and if it does well enough we will look at replacing our F-18's. they also want to use the F-22 to replace F-16's, and F-15's but it isnt gonna happen.

@EnglishTurbines The F-35 will get 6 internal weapons in Blk 3 or Blk 5. So that'd make it 4 Aim-120Ds and 2 Aim-9Xs, with the Eurofighter typhoon being forced to keep it's amraams until the F-35 gets close enough to be detected and locked onto meaning extra weight. And the Eurofighter will be constantly forced to be dodging Aim-120Ds until it's able to get the F-35 within Visual range.

there are alot of detecting types and the stealth thats talked about is related only with some types of radars...EM using radars can detect this plane so easily but the cost is much ofc comparing to classic - usual radars

@docwiester i dont think it will be cancelled, it is in early pruduction, and one has been delievered.

There are common misconception about stealth techniques. Most people think it's a special type of skin coat that gets painted onto the Airframe surface. Thats only 1 way to stealth a jet & usually that's only done after the other techniques. First there is vehicle shaping, the most effective ways is with orthognal metal plates - dihedral or trihedral, 2nd planform alignment 3rd burying the engine in the wings or eliminating propellers, bumps or protrusions & burying turbines.

The "One Plane that does all" More like the third, or fourth. The F-16 and F/A-18 are very popular because they can do it all, and they didn't even have 3 versions to spread out the work load. The F-35 will do it all, and do it better, seems like a good plan for success.

@themadmek01 Actually..old and outdated is only a perception to a degree. The F-16 Block 60 has tremendous upgrades to it's airframe including additional space for much newer avionics. Also, with Block program upgrades ( Block 10, Block 20, Block 30 etc.....) it not only includes upgrades such as electronics but almost always includes engine upgrades as well. The F-16 could go far beyond what it currently is by expanding the F-16 XL test platform.

@TheWrinklydon Yeah 'cause we U.S. can't figure out how to use gyros and would've *never* figured out how to vector thrust without you. Many thanks!

@EnglishTurbines This whole project is a great effort for all parties involved, an effort that is succeeding. Once in a while you get a disbeliever like you. Time will tell, I just happen to know it will be successful before hand! I wish I just pushed papers. lol

What is the name of the track in this video?

What are you gonna do if EF2000s and Sukhois are equipped with long wave radar system in the future? Don't you think the Russians and the Chinese are already developing it?

@goleafbudsgo Hey, it was Lockheed that approached Rolls Royce and GE for the Lift System.., not the other way around...so go figure. You think because they let you push some paper around you know everything maybe?... And for the record, your F35A will have a Prat and Whitney in it, now theres second prize eh?...lol.

Wait....Is F-35 Ligthning II same plane like AV8B Harrier II????

@torque2802, The A-10 was first made to take out Soviet tanks in Eastern Europe and then went on to peerform CAS missions. The air force has always hated CAS and that's why the A-10 has been on the chopping block so often and why the F-15's pitch was, "Not a pound for air to ground." The F-35 has an extremely limited abilty outside of air to air and bombing fixed targets. Without drones, the air force and navy won't be involved in CAS beyond 2028 because of the limited ability of the F-35.

Like they did with the F-22 and made the J-20?

it is a wonder and great confidence that to drive a middle or heavy airplane by only a huge power engine.

@malayatom You can't base an aircraft on wing loading, we have lifting bodies now-a-days. F-16 has a higher wing loading than the F-4 PhantomII, are you suggesting that F-16 is less manuverable than the Phantom? The F-35B, less manuverable of the variants, was found to have F-18 like qualities but with better energy management. (better acceleration. etc.)

@weissman2000 It sure does! Lockheed Martin makes some pretty good quality planes though! E.g, c-130, c-5, f-16, and the Sr-71. :)
