F-35 Special feature of fighter jet
Manufactured and designed by Lockheed Martin for the United States, F-35 is one of the most advanced and versatile fighter jets in the world. Defense experts say F-35 may be the most secret fighter aircraft in operations in today’s time. These F-35 fighter jets use a single F135 engine that produces a thrust of 40,000 pounds, allowing this MAC to reach a high speed of 1.6 (1,200 mph).
How different is F-35 from other fighter aircraft in the world
The cockpit of F-35 fighter aircraft is different from other fighter aircraft and does not have gauge or screens like other aircraft and uses large touchscreen and helmet-mounted display systems. This gives the pilot the facility to see real -time information.
Apart from this, the helmet also allows the pilot to see the aircraft across the aircraft. The credit goes to the distributed aperture system (DAS) of F-35 and six infrared cameras installed strategically around the aircraft. These F-35 fighter aircraft have weapons ranging from 6,000 kg to 8,100 kg. This means that they can carry heavy weapons without compromising their stealth.
