VTOL or STOL?

Either way, sweet.

VTOL or STOL?

Both.

There's a a fan mounted 90 degrees off the front of the engine , behind the pilot, that draws cool air from above and blows it direct out the bottom.

Way cool.

The F-35 is not the answer for the USN (but it sadly appears to be what they're getting).

The F-35 is hardly even a good replacement for the USAF 16's for that matter (and certainly not for the A-10s...thankfully that has been stopped for now).

The USN would be much better off staying with the F-18F versions and going with USN version of the F-22 for their interceptor role....
