Sorry, its Aviation Week and Space Technology. Its the sign of the hardcore aviation junkie if you subscribe. Also known as Aviation leak, it is pretty good at scouping aviation stories.

my thing will the storm shadows, is simple well ish, I'd rather have 2shadows in the bomb bay and the wing points for a2a missiles as there smaller than these massive 5m long angels for death.

I thought that the F-35 was the proposed jamming version of the JSF.

Anyways I think that the new STOSL F-35 would be great, but it shouldnt replace the A-10 but work with it.

What do you mean jamming version?

Also, The A-10 will be retired around 2025.

Yeah im not sure about that one. I have never heard anydiscussion about an EA-35 variant. The ESRA can be used in that fashion to an extent, but I would think that that would basically light a bright here I am sign.

Considering that the F-22 program has been cancelled, I was wondering what might be the future replacement for this aircraft and came out with the idea of a new version of the Lightning II, the F-35D.

To maintain the advantages of sustainability and reduced operating costs, this version would be based on the NAVY variant F-35C.

Major changes/improvements would be as follow,

1. Eliminate vertical rudders and elevators and replace with ruddervators.
2. Include full 360 degree thrust vectoring to improve close combat maneuvering.

I have an image of this craft but since I'm new here I still don't know how to post it. Some help with this will be greatly appreciated.

gates has been trying to cancel the F22 now for 3 years and each year he is stopped - the same gates thats also trying to cancel the F136 engine for the F35 - and he is thwarted on that as well.

How can it be a cancellation when there are 180+ in service

The Avro Arrow was cancelled, the TSR 2 was cancelled, the A-12 Avenger II was cancelled, but the F-22 is in service.

Slayer69 - great vid.
nicely put together.
