Many think the F-35 is not a good aircraft. You have been lied to again. Image a fighter when you put the helmet on and can see 180 degrees without the obstruction of the aircraft. What is your advantage?

Did you mean 360 degrees?

What is your advantage? I would think that technology could be added to any airframe. I'm expecting something more than that from the F-35. It had better be bringing a quantitative edge that is unique to it.

"You have been lied to again"Yes it is probably better than we realize. However I look at all the underside undulations in the fuselage and wing area and how that may effect it as a bit of a lifting body, and in formation flights with WWII aircraft and Ariel Refueling it is at High Alpha spewing wing tip vortices and all I can come back to is man, it needs more wing area...
