Re: F-35A fire - Moutain Home AFB
Quote from Defence News....."Seven F-35As from Luke AFB, which is one of the bases responsible for joint strike fighter pilot instruction, had deployed to Mountain Home to conduct surface-to-air training ....from Sept. 10 to 24.".....which is rather fortunate really, as on the Ground pointing at the sky is where they're best
This 'work-in-progress' is rapidly becoming worthy of the name...'Frightning II'
Meanwhile, some say James Dyson has been contracted to design a secondary 'Lift-fan' for the 'B' model that does work best in a salt-water atmosphere...& that Rolls Royce (on a bad day!) designed the original fan to add in 'Shock & Awe'....All we know is, it squeals like a stuck pig at a sacrifice!
