i would like to knw th posting are meant for.......any implication?

Implication? It is only for comparisonOriginally posted by duotiga83:i would like to knw th posting are meant for.......any implication?

pardon my ignorance...
i'm wonderin, wats the diff b'tween f22 n the jsf? -
F-22 is for air dominance...while JSF is for mud moving roles( air to ground)Originally posted by alwaysdisturbed:pardon my ignorance...

F22 need run way to take off F35 can take off and land vertically. Am i right to say that?Originally posted by alwaysdisturbed:pardon my ignorance...

Yeah. Anyway F35B requires an excellent heat insulated run way. If ACC's aluminium matted run way get toast & they require replacements, our available run way won't take the heatOriginally posted by grandeur:F22 need run way to take off F35 can take off and land vertically. Am i right to say that? -
for F35 you only mention 1 ver which is STOVL.....there are 3 VER, CTOL for air force and CV for NavyOriginally posted by grandeur:F22 need run way to take off F35 can take off and land vertically. Am i right to say that? -
F-35A--normal T-O version
F-35B--V/STOL version
F-35C--carrier version -
yeah i noe...Originally posted by spartan6:F-35A--normal T-O version

F-35C--carrier version
i think a lot of ppl here generalised f35 for the v/stol version...
coming to f35a and f22...wats the diff? still air dominance? -
ah, lets put it this way, the JSf's internal carriage can carry only 4 AMRAAMs. Not much of an air to air armament. Sidewinders won't work on the JSF either, cos the sidewinder actually needs to to see the target's heat signature in order to lock, thats why they had the ASRAAM. I din see a carriage for the ASRAAM last i saw the JSF tech sheets.

ARSAAM is still short range, anywhy if u can carry AIM-9 u can carry ARSAAM cos same launcher

F-22 is meantt to replace F-15. F-35 is meantt o replace F-16, F/A-18, Av-8B for the US, Harrier and specat Jaguar for UKOriginally posted by alwaysdisturbed:yeah i noe...
