The crux of your arguments rests on the concept of engineering/manufacturing concurrency, which you implied as flawed. Yes, the F-35 does have issues, but then so does the 777 and the A380 when those aircrafts were under production. This sub-forum is not to promote the F-35 but to discuss it, flaws and successes.Quit weaseling out of the issue. I provided various sources showing that the F-35 is far from completion as of recently and now. Where are your sources that the F-35 is completely ready as of today or in the recent past?
Duel me one vs. one. Quit trying to drag your buddies into this discussion, cuz you lack the brains to deal with me one vs. one. Our discussion started here, it'll continue here, and it'll end here. You are not going to move this discussion to a message board that promotes the F-35.
What is there to 'disprove' ? That the F-35 does not have any problems ? Basically, what you want is for me to agree with you. If that is the case, then what is the point of having a debate any way ? I am not running away from you, son. I am challenging you in the correct arena.The above reply made by Gambit to me was made in the message board titled, "F-22 / F-35 5th Generation jets | News & Discussions."
However, our discussion started off in this message board titled, "PLA to buy 700 stealth fighters, says Jane's Defence Weekly." The discussion was initiated by other members talking about how many stealth fighters are available or will be available in China, the US, and other nations.
Once again, Gambit tries to weasel his way out of an intelligent discussion. He shifted the discussion to a message board that promotes the F-35 JSF and incompletely quoted me. Then he provided articles that have nothing to do with the F-35's major problems.
I provided various articles from various sources about the serious problems with the F-35 JSF. Gambit is unable to disprove any of those claims. Instead he cherry picks information, tries to move the discussion to a message board that promotes the F-35, he misquotes people, he uses straw man arguments, and then tosses in irrelevant information.

This is the SECOND time the weasel called Gambit ran away from me in a one vs one debate. He wants his buddies to debate with me, because Gambit lacks the brain power to debate with me one vs one.
Anyhow, here is an update on the recent critical failure for the engine inside the F-35 JSF.
Cant wait for the Israeli one, that one is going to be unique and packed with the usual Israeli gadgets.
Highly unlikely.Do we have a chance to get these in future if budget allows?
It would have been natural for the Hortens to try to reduce the -229's radar vulnerability by any method and if charcoal, which would have been lighter weight than iron particles in paint, would work, they would try charcoal.The earliest forms of RAM were the materials called Sumpf and Schornsteinfeger, a coating used by the German navy during World War II for the snorkels (or periscopes) of submarines, to lower their reflectivity in the 20-centimeter radar band the Allies used. The material had a layered structure and was based on graphite particles and other semiconductive materials embedded in a rubber matrix. The material's efficiency was partially reduced by the action of sea water.
Germany also pioneered the first aircraft to use RAM during World War II, in the form of the Horten Ho 229. It used a carbon-impregnated plywood that would have made it very stealthy to Britain's primitive radar of the time. It is unknown if the carbon was incorporated for stealth reasons or because of Germany's metal shortage.
What Ufimtsev and his creation PTD did was gave the world the mathematical tools to analyze those behaviors initially without the need for physical experimentations, which should come later to produce either correlation or disassociation.The history of radar starts with experiments by Heinrich Hertz in the late 19th century that showed that radio waves were reflected by metallic objects. This possibility was suggested in James Clerk Maxwell's seminal work on electromagnetism. However, it was not until the early 20th century that systems were able to use these principles were becoming widely available, and it was German inventor Christian Hülsmeyer who first used them to build a simple ship detection device intended to help avoid collisions in fog (Reichspatent Nr. 165546). Numerous similar systems, which provided directional information to objects over short ranges, were developed over the next two decades.
Thats because u dont know what u are talking as usual.I have not seen F-15s against SU-30s or F-16s against MIG-29s
Well in 1982 USSR had nothing newer than MiG-23.it has always been F-16s-15s against at best some MIG-23s
