@@NigelWoolleyaviation what is that lid that opens behind the canopy? I only seem to see it open on the versions that can do the vertical take off and landing.
@@esotericyetti327 You are correct with only the short take off and vertical landing F-35B's having the lid. That and another lid behind the cockpit both open to allow the lift fan to provide downward thrust when hovering (along with the rear engine pointing downwards) whereas the F-35A's are non hover conventional aircraft.
If someone from 1950 saw this F35 display they'd be convinced they just saw something from another world! Revolutionary technology and a game changer indeed!
H2H just remember That they said the same Things about The Hawker Hurricane & Supermarine Spit-Fire when They where Introduced But The Royal Air force solved the problems and The Hurricane & Spit-fire Became legends! All new aircraft go though a "rough" period at first. Through Adversity to the Stars!
Saturday 9th was my first time ever to see the F-35 in flesh. I have to say I was a little surprised by how it's actually a very small aircraft, especially next to the F-22. That fact was made even more apparent during the Heritage Flight when the F-35 flew past with the F-22. However, although the F-35 is new and shiny, I personally still think that the F-22 is the better looking of the two. The Raptor is a very beautiful aircraft.
I don't know. they look amazing similar when flying in formation. The F-22 is larger, that's all. And General Hostage of ACC just said the F-35 is more stealthy!
I don't know why people think that because F-35 is the most expensive and the newest, it must be the "biggest", the "fastest" and the "strongest". In war, there is no plane that can destroy an army by itself. The F-35 is one very useful tool for the American Airforce. And it makes the U.S. military really superior in air to ground and air to air combats, comparing the other countries.
Nigel, thanks so much, until recently I did not realize how much bigger the F-22 is compared to the F-35, but your video highlights scale and other notable points of difference that any lover of 5th Gen. fighters should study, keep up the good work
I wish people would stop pitting the 22 and 35 against each other. They were never meant to be thought of in that regard. Look at them like the F15 and F16.
I think they just use that as an excuse to be able to make negative remarks about these aircraft. They'll use anything at all to be able to hate on them.
Awesome machine. Just got back an hour ago from Saturday and Sunday's Air Shows. Pretty much stole the show. It also destroyed the 2 small bollards at display datum on the Saturday during the hover.. LOL
I sure anybody who lived near RAF Wittering in Cambridgeshire UK ten years ago would have said, "so what's new?" An aeroplane that can hover and land vertically? Wow, we did it so long ago it's history.
For F-35 to have a newly designed Vertical Take Off System; besides the usual Turn-Down Nozzles, it seems to be quite exceptional. But what do I know, I have never jumped in the cockpit and took it for a spin.....lol.
Wow, excellent footage!!, What did you film it with? I was there and used a sony handycam but it was shaking all over the place!! need to upgrade for future airshows, do you have any recommendations for a steady shot?
Pleased you were there to enjoy Dazza Yazza! Recording with vid camera is very challenging even with expensive tripods and plenty of space. I use a Canon legria HF G30 which is better than handicam but nowhere near some of the professional big toys I see at the airshows! I believe it is in the hands of the cameraman with a few inexpensive add ons eg use a monopod for low altitude and ground shots, apply stabilizer setting if your camera has that (but it can only do so much) Also some editing programs have post stabilize options (but they can only do so much as well). A viewfinder will provide more accuracy and great vision when outside rather than screen, which combined with eye contact on camera and two steady hands reduces shake more. Finally tight shots with aircraft are ridiculously difficult to get a stable shot so zoom out a little. Apart from that practice and trial I reckon. Wasn't thrilled with this footage as far as stability but an awesome day to watch. Cheers and good luck.
thanks for the advice! definitely agree with the need for a viewfinder. think I will need to invest asap ready for the thunderbirds this year! cheers 👍
BTW, that wasnt really a short takeoff...that was a high speed taxi followed by short takeoff. Seems like the pilot wanted to lift off closer to show centerpoint. The short takeoff, with a light load, is approximately 500'.
The F-22 is also a jet designed in the '80s. This web site was still a quarter century away when the F-22 was being designed. Something to keep in mind.
Sort of true. The concept of the f-22 dates back to 1986. The first prototypes actually are very different than the fly away F-22 of today. the original concept wasn't packet with all the technology software and aviation suit. also the aircraft had a major airframe redesign as well. This is what drove the f-22 price to sky rocket from original cost. to this day, even as china J-20 and Russian T-50 (Pak-Fa) still lack in many critical areas.
Fair point. What I meant was more in terms of raw performance/stealth. It is also just a bigger beast in terms of size...hence the name big daddy. The F-35 is far more advanced and will play a much larger role than the F-22 ever did or could. The people complaining about the F-35 are those that can't get over the days of dog fighting. Cold war era style.
It IS the short and stubby version of the F-22 (i.e. a 5th Gen combat fighter). Just a lot more modern and a bit more advanced, electronics and materials wise. And of course, it's also designed for a different ground attack combat role (mostly) than the F-22.
I also find it hard to understand and thought this might be the first area of fatigue on the aircraft. Someone on the net will have the reasons and answers!
Holy sh!t TWO different fifth generation fighters planes flying and fighting together as one ?! If I was an opposing pilot going up against that, my cockpit would be full of poo poo, oopsy.
In war your can lose runways or need to set down anywhere you like. It can also take off vertically but uses a ton more fuel doing so which is why they mostly do short take offs.
F35B is attack/strike fighter is build mostly for navy/marines to attack other countries from aircraft carrier, so if somebody destroys its runway (aircraft carrier) where will it land? And it's too heavy to take up vertically "combat ready", it can only do it without weapons and with low fuel, witch is useless, that's why it uses STOL instead of VTOL.
If you were soldiers in the field about to get over ran by the enemy you can call for air support f-35 maybe 25 to 30 miles back but can get to you in 8 minutes boom you get to go home see your family again.
F-35 got curves. She can definitely throw some curve-balls. I used to hate her. Lately, she's growing on me. F-16 and f-18 replacement? I'll give her the benefit of the doubt. Still no replacement for the A-10, though.
FYI a heritage flight is when modern fighters or other aircraft types fly with planes from the past, not with their contemporaries. Such as F-22 with P-51 or EF-2000 flying with Spitfire or F-16 flying with F-86. F-35 flying with F-22 EF-2000 and BAe Hawks is not a heritage flight. Last I checked the UKs heritage flight had a Lancaster, some Spitfires, and a Hurricane or two(maybe more), none of those were there so this is not a heritage flight.
Thanks IJ for correction of terminology (and definitely a brain fade moment as I understand the heritage flight concept so no idea why I used that title!) In terms of recent formations at RIAT 18 some fantastic formations eg Tornado, F35 with Lancaster, F-35 P-51 with Spitfire plus an impressive seven ship BBMF flight (3 spitfires, two hurricanes, Lancaster and Dakota) Whilst I can't changethe title in the video thanks for noting. Cheers)
No worries. I liked the video. It is very well done and edited and I liked seeing the RAF Lightning with the F-22, and liked seeing it with the Red Arrows. I wish the US teams did stuff like this alas, I doubt you'll ever see the F-22/35s flying with the Blue Angels or the Thunderbirds.
@@robertbrockway7301 Looks like Ben Parkinson is a little butthurt. I can only laugh at those who feel the need to post stats on fighter aircraft for which the video has nothing to do with... lol
The problematic, single-seat jet was flying in good weather about 135 km (84 miles) east of the Misawa air base in Aomori Prefecture at about 7:27 p.m. (1027 GMT) on Tuesday when it disappeared from radar, and crash into the Pacific ocean, info released by Japanese Air Self Defense Force. This has reignite concern about the F-35 having only one engine while all the Trolls on RUclips defended the F35's single engine as even more reliable than twin engined Jet fighter! Pilot's life is expandable as is usual !
She's an absolutely fantastic jet. I'm not too sure about her thick-waisted little sister doing the circus tricks though. Maybe in time that enormous backside will start to seem charming and the rest of the gimp apparatus too. They say she's very good with numbers and housekeeping.
all comments on all videoes of the F-35 is filled with arguments and both stupid and good comments. you see a comment either possivtive or negative and you see all the replies and up-votes its funny.
Flying so fast requires afterburners, which is basically dumping barrels of fuel into the exhaust part of the engine. Extremely inefficient. But worse, when you add armament like missiles and bombs to the outside of an old plane, you decrease the fuel efficiency again. It was a premature technology.
I still don't get it, where is a "super-kick" in this plane... what so special about hovering over ground? Why is it takes such a long time to change from normal flight to hovering mode??? Does this in any way improved its battle-capabilities? If it takes very long time for this plane to takeoff or land using hovering mode, then what's the advantage at all???
The advantage is that the F-35 can carry a B-61 mod. -12 thermonuclear bomb from austere bases and deliver it 1000km away with laser guided precision while in full stealth mode with the ability to defend itself from interceptors during ingerss and egress.
It’s actually amazing the cost of these jets..... yet majority of our population are struggling to put food on the table and pay bills.... who’s paying for these again?
Does anybody go to airshows to actually watch the planes anymore or just spend the entire time looking down a DSLR going CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK.... delete 90% of the ones taken and then upload to Flickr and remember nothing about the day.
Certainly some trigger happy photographers around Zoso11! Given that this was filmed in a photographers area with an unique situation not seen in Europe before then they could be forgiven for capturing awesome aviation moments.
Yeah that's fair enough, its just almost every video i see these days or show i go to is full on CLICK'athon, like gigs/concerts and camera phones, same thing. When 558 was in its final year, and more so its final flight, i watched the whole thing with my eyes wide open to take in the occasion and savour it, that and thew fact its a thing of power and beauty, but hundreds of people around me pretty much missed the whole thing.
have to add. i get choked up when i see our guys & girls fly the very BEST! expensive!..so! what else are we going to spend that money on. inner city black community's? (just kidding!) this will strike a hesitation on the ground and in the air and in the sea! we are the protector's of God, Family & Country! we are... AMERICA!!! note:we are VERY compassionate! don't take advantage of it!!!
Cost too much to actually use it for what it's built for man! This is 21st century warfare you buy exceptionally over priced heaps of crap and keep them locked away in a cabinet like fine china waiting for that one time the in-laws come round for dinner! $100M each! Imagine what sort of healthcare the yanks could have with that sort of money.
100 Million is way to much for this bird! Way to much government employment, we need this cheaper by way much. Cities are the only place to get away from these people and there are very rude there...
Mult zgomot pentru nimic.. Avionul nu trebuie să facă treaba elicopterului. Un F-35 care se învârte imitând un elicopter, e țintă sigură. Un avion de vânătoare să fie avion de vânătoare. F-22 , F-15, F-16 și cel mai bun F-18
Russian Yak_38 and could do the same "trick" of hovering about 35 years ago, boys, English Harrier even earlier... And in 1990, US bought-out or maybe not so but "something else" all tech documentation from another plane, Soviet Mig-141(you can check the youtube videos on all those), though the last one broke a lot of world records and could fly with supersonic speed, which you can't say about F-35. And Soviets didn't spend a "hair" of the price which US companies "consumed" for this plane. I don't quite get it, What so special about this machine?, except price spend on its development and "support fees". One of the most expensive plane ever built, but very questionable in capabilities so far.

Incredible F-35B hover display, thanks for posting
Thanks, yes the F35b certainly appeared to be rock solid in hover stability.
I could watch that thing hover all day it's beautiful
Me too! Certainly a rock solid hover and great to watch (although an exceptionally noisy piercing sound)
@@NigelWoolleyaviation what is that lid that opens behind the canopy? I only seem to see it open on the versions that can do the vertical take off and landing.

the 1st 100 f16s fell out of the sky and crashed.
jet the f35 gets so much shit
Or the 1960's when we had a prototype that hovered oh wait we've already done that....................
taos treror VTOL jets were unreliable and far too hard to land.
The UK is fucking done with the Harrier jet.
The stability and precision during hover speaks volumes.
Yes the stability was definitely rock solid despite the wind and the sound was certainly in volumes eg ridiculously loud!
Wow! What a great sight and sound of the F-35! Excellent footage!

Agree with all that. F22 has a real x factor in looks.
the f22 just looks far scarier
I don't know. they look amazing similar when flying in formation. The F-22 is larger, that's all. And General Hostage of ACC just said the F-35 is more stealthy!
Man, you read my mind!
F35 is still young and has some growing to do :D
F35: bro when will I be loved like you. F22: soon bro soon
I love them both.
+justin k and they both will be loved if used correctly
now I'm hearing "Can't cry hard enough" - William Brothers. I wonder why sad song..

lol all you hear in the background is the constant noises of cammera shutters. Beautiful!
fair play Nigel yet another Brilliant piece of film. Brilliant
I got chills seeing the 22 and 35 together. What a combo. God help anyone picking a fight with those two.
Smart Money yep super sight and great for size comparison too.

The best jet fighters in the world.

dawg9 good call
I think they just use that as an excuse to be able to make negative remarks about these aircraft. They'll use anything at all to be able to hate on them.
They both have their specific jobs.
You must have a great camera to have captured this so well. The Friday was amazing, great to see the RAF F35B stealing the show.
I'd like to see the infrared photo of the F-35 hovering I seen the one with the Harrier awesome
Good call. Would be interesting!
The're (F22&35) soooo Beautiful....!!! i want one

i don't care what anyone says, the F22 looks beautiful and lethal at the same time.....
The evolution of F15 and F16 = F22 and F35 😀
they do like badass flying together ... def a gruesome twosome
Like Selma and Patty
AWWW the big brother (F22) and the little sister (f35).
Love it. F-35b with short runway takeoff followed by f-22 followed by f-35b floating in the air like a helo. Which is better? I don't know.
F-35 has a better radar than F-22 it's based on the F-22 radar but modded to also shoot out a really high jammer energy.
It's a shame the Pentagon are not interested in upgrading their F-22's to remain Air Superiority fighters
f22s have 90% of all the new F35 sensors as of late 2015.
I sure anybody who lived near RAF Wittering in Cambridgeshire UK ten years ago would have said, "so what's new?" An aeroplane that can hover and land vertically? Wow, we did it so long ago it's history.
Suggest you go and read up on the shaft driven lift fan system before you go poo pooing its abilities. The Harrier was great for its time. Move on.
For F-35 to have a newly designed Vertical Take Off System; besides the usual Turn-Down Nozzles, it seems to be quite exceptional. But what do I know, I have never jumped in the cockpit and took it for a spin.....lol.
The f35 is like the f22 younger brother
Man how doesn’t that door on top not get ripped off?!
That is just amazing. Floating like a heli and and so steady. I just wonder about the overall reliability.
one crash in 100,000 hours no aircraft in history can claim such a thing
incredible ,,an we will need it soon......watch ...
1:46 dang that's cool first time seeing that
Interesting that the F35 can fly slow enough to refuel from a C130. That would help solve basing problems, I think. That and the B version's STOVL.
I love how the rear thruster twitches like an appendage when hovering.
CAFC Computer Aided Flight and Controls.

they are either clueless or spreading false propaganda.
+AllyourBaseArebelongToUs Well, tell us the truth then.
Looks are deceiving to the obtuse of eye
Every aircraft when they first come out will have issues. Like first gen car hell even your iPhone
BTW, that wasnt really a short takeoff...that was a high speed taxi followed by short takeoff. Seems like the pilot wanted to lift off closer to show centerpoint.
The short takeoff, with a light load, is approximately 500'.
very slow taxi followed by short take off from my vantage point. Compare the speed of the F35 with the cars in the background, seems like a slow taxi
I meant 30-40mph taxi. Thats fast enough to get F-35B halfway therem
Yes it was, they can take off in 300 ft..
Seen several takes of it, it was a long, high speed (30kt +) taxi followed by a short takeoff.
Aircraft typically taxi at around 20mph. Seeing cars going faster should be the norm.
F-22 is the big daddy...but the F-35 is still nice.

I'll say it again... F-22 = F-15, F-35 = F-16.... Stop comparing the jets.. They have different roles.
Lol the f-35 looks like the short and stubby version of the f-22,
It IS the short and stubby version of the F-22 (i.e. a 5th Gen combat fighter). Just a lot more modern and a bit more advanced, electronics and materials wise. And of course, it's also designed for a different ground attack combat role (mostly) than the F-22.
I think the sweptback fins of the F35 look better ? Wales UK
Like your son.
Looks like Dad taking Son out for his first flight...lol.
The best in the world
Cover for hover fan works at flying speeds... while convertible top on cars breaks going faster than 5 mph.

Anyone know if the F-35 can use weapons while hovering?
why should it have to use weaponds while hovering? it is not a helicopter
Holy sh!t TWO different fifth generation fighters planes flying and fighting together as one ?! If I was an opposing pilot going up against that, my cockpit would be full of poo poo, oopsy.
Actually your cockpit wouldn't be filled with poo poo, because you would have been shot down and dead before you even realized they were out there
Oh yeah..You're right...damn.
What purpose has a hover landing?
In war your can lose runways or need to set down anywhere you like. It can also take off vertically but uses a ton more fuel doing so which is why they mostly do short take offs.
F35B is attack/strike fighter is build mostly for navy/marines to attack other countries from aircraft carrier, so if somebody destroys its runway (aircraft carrier) where will it land?
And it's too heavy to take up vertically "combat ready", it can only do it without weapons and with low fuel, witch is useless, that's why it uses STOL instead of VTOL.
If you were soldiers in the field about to get over ran by the enemy you can call for air support f-35 maybe 25 to 30 miles back but can get to you in 8 minutes boom you get to go home see your family again.

No worries. I liked the video. It is very well done and edited and I liked seeing the RAF Lightning with the F-22, and liked seeing it with the Red Arrows. I wish the US teams did stuff like this alas, I doubt you'll ever see the F-22/35s flying with the Blue Angels or the Thunderbirds.
I never realized how small the F-35 is compared to the F-22

@@robertbrockway7301 Looks like Ben Parkinson is a little butthurt. I can only laugh at those who feel the need to post stats on fighter aircraft for which the video has nothing to do with... lol
Красивые. Будто не человеческого ума творение.
Hell yes
The problematic, single-seat jet was flying in good weather about 135 km (84 miles) east of the Misawa air base in Aomori Prefecture at about 7:27 p.m. (1027 GMT) on Tuesday when it disappeared from radar, and crash into the Pacific ocean, info released by Japanese Air Self Defense Force. This has reignite concern about the F-35 having only one engine while all the Trolls on RUclips defended the F35's single engine as even more reliable than twin engined Jet fighter! Pilot's life is expandable as is usual !
That's one thing the Raptor can't hold a candle to the F35 B in.......taking off and landing in your front yard.
Would like to see that! Should dry the clothes on the clothesline much quicker and kill the weeds in the garden.
The amount of fuel burn just for the hover landing equal to many app landings!!
She's an absolutely fantastic jet. I'm not too sure about her thick-waisted little sister doing the circus tricks though.
Maybe in time that enormous backside will start to seem charming and the rest of the gimp apparatus too. They say she's very good with numbers and housekeeping.
@@tyrredNow give us a 5-cent psychiatrist opinion on an internet fanboy who worships a machine based on its corporate sales brochure.
If the F-22 is the Father,and the F-35 is the Son...does that mean the B-2 was the MOM?!?!?!?
The MOM was the taxes that we payed
I will call him (F-35), Mini Me
They are not ready yet. No big deal. They are play games "D"!
Wow. The F-35 is tiny compared to the F-22
Ckc dillpickle Not tiny, just a little smaller.
skysharks
all comments on all videoes of the F-35 is filled with arguments and both stupid and good comments. you see a comment either possivtive or negative and you see all the replies and up-votes its funny.
Yeah, it is ugly one, but still second best 5th gen. fighter in world.
We cannot see any trace
4 f35 aircraft I need since safety on first time on earth Mizo people are endless happy this have year year ago have no f35 f22
The F-35 looks so tiny compared to the F-22 lol
I’m not a furry i swear especially as it was always closest to spectators on the passes.
F22 is huge for sure !!
If all of the planes go Mach 2 or more...
+Monster LMA including the MiG-31 and F-15s?
Flying so fast requires afterburners, which is basically dumping barrels of fuel into the exhaust part of the engine. Extremely inefficient. But worse, when you add armament like missiles and bombs to the outside of an old plane, you decrease the fuel efficiency again. It was a premature technology.
Re-fueling...a bitch even today
I still don't get it, where is a "super-kick" in this plane... what so special about hovering over ground? Why is it takes such a long time to change from normal flight to hovering mode??? Does this in any way improved its battle-capabilities? If it takes very long time for this plane to takeoff or land using hovering mode, then what's the advantage at all???
The advantage is that the F-35 can carry a B-61 mod. -12 thermonuclear bomb from austere bases and deliver it 1000km away with laser guided precision while in full stealth mode with the ability to defend itself from interceptors during ingerss and egress.
In real world use it can land much faster, I believe he was putting on a show. Look up F-35b sea trials
V TROFIM It is a airshow, not combat.
It’s actually amazing the cost of these jets..... yet majority of our population are struggling to put food on the table and pay bills.... who’s paying for these again?
The Majority population where?
Does anybody go to airshows to actually watch the planes anymore or just spend the entire time looking down a DSLR going CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK.... delete 90% of the ones taken and then upload to Flickr and remember nothing about the day.
Certainly some trigger happy photographers around Zoso11! Given that this was filmed in a photographers area with an unique situation not seen in Europe before then they could be forgiven for capturing awesome aviation moments.
Yeah that's fair enough, its just almost every video i see these days or show i go to is full on CLICK'athon, like gigs/concerts and camera phones, same thing. When 558 was in its final year, and more so its final flight, i watched the whole thing with my eyes wide open to take in the occasion and savour it, that and thew fact its a thing of power and beauty, but hundreds of people around me pretty much missed the whole thing.
have to add. i get choked up when i see our guys & girls fly the very BEST!
expensive!..so! what else are we going to spend that money on. inner city black community's? (just kidding!) this will strike a hesitation on the ground and in the air and in the sea! we are the protector's of God, Family & Country! we are... AMERICA!!!
note:we are VERY compassionate! don't take advantage of it!!!
Not exactly throwing it around are they. Frightened that it may be show to be a lemon perhaps?
If you want to see performance, look up the RNAF F-35A debut, the Dutch weren't piddling around with them.
Thanks for that. just watched it. Not really impressed
+Peter Stubbs That's because is flies almost like a Viper, nothing new to really see :P
Cost too much to actually use it for what it's built for man! This is 21st century warfare you buy exceptionally over priced heaps of crap and keep them locked away in a cabinet like fine china waiting for that one time the in-laws come round for dinner! $100M each! Imagine what sort of healthcare the yanks could have with that sort of money.
+taos terror let the yanks worry about their money, and you worry about yours : )

100 Million is way to much for this bird! Way to much government employment, we need this cheaper by way much. Cities are the only place to get away from these people and there are very rude there...
Cheap at that 100 million.
f-35 bad jet
Mult zgomot pentru nimic.. Avionul nu trebuie să facă treaba elicopterului. Un F-35 care se învârte imitând un elicopter, e țintă sigură. Un avion de vânătoare să fie avion de vânătoare. F-22 , F-15, F-16 și cel mai bun F-18
Nobody here speaks gypsy.
Russian Yak_38 and could do the same "trick" of hovering about 35 years ago, boys, English Harrier even earlier... And in 1990, US bought-out or maybe not so but "something else" all tech documentation from another plane, Soviet Mig-141(you can check the youtube videos on all those), though the last one broke a lot of world records and could fly with supersonic speed, which you can't say about F-35. And Soviets didn't spend a "hair" of the price which US companies "consumed" for this plane. I don't quite get it, What so special about this machine?, except price spend on its development and "support fees". One of the most expensive plane ever built, but very questionable in capabilities so far.
V TROFIM Oh? Have you been involved in the testing of this aircraft?
I wish the f35 didn’t have that big scoop on top that opens. Looks cheesy.
Yes TL ....not that stylish! I still wonder about the pressure and possible fatigue from when the dust bin lid is open too.
It is needed to ramp air on short take offs.

100 is for the 22. millions less for the 35
