Blimey. There's an effin great radar reflector called an aircraft carrier around when it's doing that hovering trick. A bit of near IR in that regime is hardly an issue.
In forward flight during a mission, how would
you provide the spec performance without a jet engine and a con-di nozzle?
Of the things people complain about with the F-35, the practical limitations of physics seems a strange one to add to the list.
