Your Sunday Morning Jet Noise

F-35 "Turkey II" vertical takeoff:


I'm skeptical of the utility of the F-35. But then again, I'm not convinced of Ft. Fumble's ability to buy anything more complicated than a bolt-action rifle without screwing it all up. The F-35 has been tasked with doing everything from ACM to ground-attack, which is a pretty good guarantee that it won't be able to do much of anything well.

Wasn't this the plane that kept killing Pilots and even a Mechanic or two?
It's nice that it can go up but can it go forward from that position? That is a lot of resistance with that intake open. Must be a hard thing to transition.

LockMart copied the intake design from the Yak-38.
