sorry guys, I'm not in a hole..it seems you can't accept that the f-35 goes M1.2 in dry
Sigh... yes it can, but it will be decelerating [slowly] and will continue to decelerate until subsonic, because it cannot supercruise. The LM spin machine is using the apparent fact that it takes 150nm to decelerate to subsonic speeds to hoodwink casual observers into believing this equates to supercruise - with apparent success.

Read Lt Col Griffiths' quotes carefully - it needs reheat to get supersonic, and will not stay there in dry power!
