Скачать или смотреть F-35 Manufacturing - World's Most Expensive Mile In Forth Worth Aircraft Factory

The Forth Worth factory where Lockheed Martin builds F-35 stealth jets is probably one of the most expensive miles in the whole world. Every 20 meters you got another 80-100 million USD in the shape of a stealth airplane...

The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is an American family of single-seat, single-engine, all-weather stealth multirole combat aircraft that is intended to perform both air superiority and strike missions. It is also able to provide electronic warfare and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities. Lockheed Martin is the prime F-35 contractor, with principal partners Northrop Grumman and BAE Systems. The aircraft has three main variants: the conventional takeoff and landing F-35A (CTOL), the short take-off and vertical-landing F-35B (STOVL), and the carrier-based F-35C (CV/CATOBAR).

Manufacturer's data:
The 5th generaton F-35 Lightning II integrates advanced stealth technology into a highly agile, supersonic aircraf that provides the pilot with unprecedented situatonal awareness and unmatched lethality and survivability.

The three F-35 variants have similar performance characteristics, and are mainly distinguished by their different basing requirements. As a result, the F-35B and F-35C variants have unique ways to take off and land.
The variation between models allows military forces to achieve service-specific mission capability, while still taking advantage the economies of scale that result from the parts and processes that are common to all three variants.

The F-35A conventional takeoff and landing (CTOL) variant is designed to operate from conventional runways, and is the only version to carry an internal cannon. The F-35A will be the most prevalent variant of the F-35. The U.S. Air Force as well as the majority of our allied air forces and Foreign Military Sales (FMS) nations will operate the F-35A, replacing their 3rd and 4th generation aircraft.
The F-35B model short takeoff/vertical landing (STOVL) variant is designed to operate from austere, short-field bases and a range of air-capable ships operating near front-line combat zones. The F-35B can also take off and land conventionally from longer runways at major bases.
F-35C - For the first time in U.S. Naval aviation history, radar-evading stealth capability comes to the carrier deck.
