Options Available for F-35Bs Road Landings & TakeOffs
As for operating F-35Bs from unprepared pads/roads etc. that are suitable to take the weight of 'em.... are we not forgetting the various VL methods available to the F-35B including a creepy landing to mitigate effects on ordinary but suitable temporary surfaces [not forgetting your gardenroadvariety runny landing]? After all the scenario envisaged probably requires moving on once a site has been used, to go to anotherie.
Roadways are usually longer than 550 feet; whilst starting from intersections will give suitable direction options for takeoff into available wind. Nothing to it really.
