For the first weekly installment of #PlanePorn we will highlight the F-35 as the Plane of the week. The F-35 as it is now called was the winner of the JSF competition, it is powered by 1 Pratt and Whitney engine producing over 40,000 pounds of thrust (in AB). This jet will be the 2nd operational 5th gen fighter in the world, with the first being the
F-22 also operated by the U.S.. The F-35 is a stealthy multi-role fighter that will replace multiple platforms for the U.S. and ally countries such as Britian, Australia, South Korea, and many more. Once the plane goes into service it will be game changing!
