Go to 0.14, according to Romney, China slapped a red star on the tail fin of F-35 and call it Made in China.

I wish everything were that easy.

MiG-29 said:
what i meant, is a head seeker of a AAM like AIM-9X does not have 360 degrees of off bored sight, they need sensors that allow them to have 360 degrees like Python V uses, the helmet mounted sight on early missiles like AA-11 Archer used the head seeker to cue the missile, modern missile use sensors, the sight is just to cue the missile but the real homing system is a sensor allowing full sphere capability

How good are the Python V defenses against say an electronic jamming devices (just curious)?

NAVAL AIR STATION PATUXENT RIVER, Md. (Oct. 4, 2012) BF-17, part of the third lot of Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP 3) F-35B Lightning II aircraft, arrives at Naval Air Station Patuxent River. BF-17 will temporarily add to the complement of F-35B and F-35C test aircraft at the F-35 Integrated Test Facility before heading to its ultimate destination at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif. The F-35B is the variant of the Joint Strike Fighter designed for use by the Marine Corps, as well as F-35 international partners in the United Kingdom and Italy. The F-35B is capable of short take-offs and vertical landings to enable air power projection from amphibious ships, ski-jump aircraft carriers and expeditionary airfields. The F-35B is undergoing test and evaluation at NAS Patuxent River, Md., prior to delivery to the fleet. America's Sailors are Warfighters, a fast and flexible force deployed worldwide.

Eairler today I asked everyone to stop arguing...seems those arguing did not play heed. So I wiped out about two pages of nonsense..because I can.

Continue the discussion about the F-35 without arguing needlessly.

Do not send me any PMs about re-posting those deleted post. I can't do it any way.
