Wow this is incredible footage. Kudos to the videographer! Nothing beats that sound
Couldn't have said it better ourselves.
Was at William Town Airforce base earlier this year. Our airforce is amazing an the F-35's are just beatiful and sound amazing!
That F135 engine has got one hell of a growl to it. What a beast!
Lucky enough to catch a couple of them having a play recently. That sound certainly "fills the room", doesn't it? 😜
Marvellous, the duo looks eye catching on the ground.
Respect from India🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
God they look so good on the ground next to each other
You're not wrong! 😍
They look better and more at home , in the Air!
The 3 x F-35A taxiing together look menacing!
These videos are incredibly deceptive about the sheer volume of noise these things put out. Still, a Hornet starting up is one of the most beautiful sounds I’ve ever heard
Love your work RAAF. Keep the jets busy and the videos coming 👍
Thanks Mark - that's the plan. 😀
@@jiaskinner7784 PNG is less then 10,000 km from Australia. It doesn’t take long for an F-35 to fly there. Papua New Guinea is always monitored by Australia.
@@brae_t PNG is about 150km from Australia..
@@Smokeyr67 yes, less than 10,000km:
@@brae_t and the moon is less than a light year away…what’s your point?
IMHO the Pratt & Whitney F135 engine sounds the best live. Thank you Raytheon Tech!
Amazing, absolutely amazing
I agree.
Don't you miss the old days when Gunnies walked around in blue stubbies and chevrons drawn on their t-shirts with texta.
Wasnt that long ago. Pretty much standard aussie uniforms hey hahaha
The F-35 just doesn't look as intimidating as the hornets. Nothing will ever truly replace the hornets.
3:55 - looks like something of War of the Worlds. Three giant aliens slowly moving toward you.
Those F-35s look glorious
Wonderful. And no screech metal soundtrack to stuff it up. Just the sound of jets.
Awesome footage at the end there over evens head
Just like to watch this.Love from Malaysia.
Id been watching the RAAF fighter jets video,the F/A-18C Hornets,the F/A-18F Super Hornets and the F-35A Lightning.Our Malaysian air force F/A-18D Hornet fighter jets used to participate and join the Pitch Black Exercise last time held in Darwin.I watched the video and it was great..
Interesting to see the lifting body in action. At the end of this video the F-35 is floating on its lifting body. Very cool image and noteworthy how much better all aircraft look when the wheels are up.
Great flying and take Off
Beautiful 😍
The Hornets have aged well.
Top maintenance teams ....
Its because they dont fly them when its raining, too hot, too cold, too dusty, too windy or if its dark.
@@1mmickk stupid lol
Well, they have to. Otherwise, the Canadians would get pretty upset at receiving ragged looking planes.
Easily in the top 5 most beautiful aircraft we have ever had in our aresnal
Eye candy for Goon and Kopp :)
They made so many outrageous claims against the delivery of this plane ... and news sites still treat them as relevant...
Might be seeing things but what was the lateral twitching at 1:10 at the beginning of transition ?
Listening plesure indeed
GOOD VIDEO
May heaven be for you always.Be safe.Be strong #RAAF 🇦🇺 🕊️
Better than ASMR!
Cool
Less planes thanks. I prefer the marketing videos depicting the RAAF being all about 19 year old women finding themselves.
😅 gotta keep it PC
"The RAAF. Where you can fly a fighter jet and have your period at the same time!"
Space.. completely unrelated, but after thinking about how diverse future fast jet missions could be.
F35 is probably my favourite jet
Really want to fly one at some point
Question is: are you willing to do the work? It's really hard
Goose Gaming
Yeah 100% would be willing to
Regardless of performance stats, the F-35 is my favourite jet fighter. The F-22 looks dated in comparison.
Edit : Plus the Russian’s can’t afford to build the SU-57 in numbers (& it lacks stealth tech). 🇦🇺
6:55 can you tell what plane that is from that shadow?
BAE Hawk 127....they are RAAF's lead in fighter training aircraft....they have 33 of them.

One day
Can’t wait for the day when I can fly jets!
Or are we going to fly our like the marines do in beast mode? Until sidekick comes of age and is deployed on the f35s to allow internal carriage of aim9x
Get sum!
That's in Newcastle raaf I live there

Maybe I am wrong, but I thought the whole idea of the F35's 'stealth' configuration was not to have armaments hanging from the aircraft, but mounted internally.
They can, but they can also mount a lot on the wings if stealth isn't required
F-35 can handle more external hard-mount weight than any other 5th gen fighter.
The planes are going to be used mostly un-stealthed. They carry special reflectors (Luneberg Lenses) that make them easily identifiable on radar. This is the workhorse mode of the F-35.
They will only have those lenses removed during stealth operations where they infiltrate the enemy. It's really dangerous for Australia to fly the F-35 in stealth mode on a regular basis. It would be pretty easy for Chinese spies living in Australia to set up surveillance equipment that would analyze and register the F-35's signature which can then be used to identify it in a conflict.
It's a lot like Batman choosing to go around solving crimes in the daytime disguised as a regular person in the city instead of trouncing around as Batman in broad daylight.
@@markvincentcocjin It would be damn near impossible for surveillance equipment that would analyze and register the F-35's signature to be utilised in any environment without detection. Source: Me - Rad/CE tech SURAD/PAR/OTHR.

why are they carry side winders on their wing tips
The F-35 can't carry sidewinders in its internal weapons bays. It doesn't seem as though it can carry the ASRAAM internally either. Why can't it? That's a good question and I'm not going to pretend to know the answer.
My guess would be that they would not add much to the radar cross section so should not detract from overall stealthiness of F35 but could be wrong.
@@GruntyGame Late to the party but the AIM-9X has to be ignited by the rail system as it doesnt have its own onboard ignition system so it has to be carried externally. The ASRAAM does support this however and lock-on-after-launch so ASRAAMs can be carried internally and paired with the DAS to shoot in 360 degrees
As a ex digger was always good to know our air force was competent and ready
ไหนกะโดด
Do we always fly our f35's with wing pylon's on? That would decrease its stealth qualities is this done deliberately??🤔
Yes
This is done because if they are flying over Australia then their really isn’t a reason to be stealthy if anything you want to be noticed so that you don’t accidentally hit an airliner this f 35 probably just came out of a live fire training exercise or they simply just haven’t taken it off from when they were in training
@@getstuffed2391 who needs stealth in training?
Goose Gaming read my comment again I said they simply may have not taken them of when they were in training meaning the pylons were on in training so their would be no stealth
@@getstuffed2391 it was rhetorical mate

I think the F-18 should be retired accept for maybe 40 planes used for Radar Jamming durring attacks. Take the
huge savings and apply it to more F-35's or torwards a next Generation program.
We only have 12 E/A 18G’s and 12 F/A 18 F’s pre wired for conversion to Growlers.

Just need USA to sell us some updated f22 raptors ;)
Forget the stats ; F-22 Raptors are dated and twice the price & running cost of the F-35.
The F-22 was offered to the RAF, JASDF and the RAAF when the USAF realised that it couldn’t afford the full order of 700 odd airframes. The RAF didn’t want it (they where invested in the Typhoon), Japan wanted to build it themselves, an Australia couldn’t afford the cost for a one trick pony.
SEXY!!
Flying red ensign Anzac flag with not only pride, but justice under their righteous command and Common Laws....
The ugliest fighter ever designed.
I was at RAAF Williamtown Base this morning and the F-35A Lightning II were taking off and sound epic. Most beautiful plane ever.
