The F-35 fighter jet makes another joke

Although the F-35 fighter jet is the most advanced new generation fifth-generation fighter jet in the United States, the U.S. Air Force is not very concerned about this new generation of stealth fighter jets. cold. According to a preliminary analysis of the reliability indicators of the F-35 fighter jet, this data shows that the fighter jet may not be able to perform too many key tasks, which may result in the F-35 fighter jet having low combat readiness capabilities and being unable to meet the various requirements of the US military. combat requirements.

For the F-35 fighter jet, it is tantamount to a slap in the face. It is not a good thing for the F-35, which already has many problems, to be evaluated like this by the American media. However, the negative news about the F-35 fighter jets does not stop there, because the two recent pieces of bad news have verified the words of the US media.

The first F-35 fighter jet received in the Netherlands was sprayed with fire-extinguishing foam, which caused serious damage to the stealth coating of the entire fuselage. However, do not spray fire-extinguishing foam without making headlines. Instead, many people have questioned the stability of the F-35 fighter's fuselage coating. They believe that the F-35 fighter is too "hypocritical" and that even fire-extinguishing foam can damage it. Its toughness is somewhat unsatisfactory.

There is another incident that makes the F-35 fighter jets unable to hold their heads up. During a military exercise conducted by Russia in the Sea of ??Japan, a Russian Tu-160 fighter jet flew over the Sea of ??Japan. *Carry out cruise missions in sea areas. However, since Japan has U.S. troops stationed there, two F-35 fighter jets flew out to accompany the Tu-160 fighter jets. They said they were accompanying the aircraft, but they were actually just monitoring them.

But as the Tu-160 accelerated, it instantly left the two F-35 fighters behind, although the position of the Tu-160 fighters was clearly known on the radar. But the pilots inside the F-35 fighter jets had long since disappeared from their sights. As the latest fifth-generation fighter, the F-35 has been left far behind.

As the F-35 fighter jets are full of jokes, the sales price has also dropped sharply. From the initial price of more than 200 million US dollars per aircraft, it has become 80 million US dollars. I wonder if this is a serious injury. captured the hearts of designers. On the contrary, the Russian fighter Su-57 is officially majestic and proud at this moment. Because the Su-57 fighter jets are about to enter mass production, and the Russian Air Force will be able to harvest the first batch of mass-produced Su-57 fighter jets before the end of the year.

This is indeed bad news for the United States. Not only the United States, the Su-57, which has entered mass production and will be released soon, will also make many NATO countries feel fearful.

The Su-57 fighter jet is much faster than the F-35 fighter jet in terms of speed alone, but the F-35 is full of jokes. However, there are not many obvious performance flaws, and the US military has repeatedly kept the price of the F-35 very low, which has also significantly improved the F-35's international sales initiative. Moreover, the outstanding advantage of the F-35 fighter jet is not speed, so it is difficult to draw a conclusion on who will win between the two new fighter jets.
