In the current edition of "The Hook" the Journal of Carrier Aviation, a Pentagon representative highlights that the F-35C will require crew to have hearing protection not only on the Flight Deck but also one deck below. Also mentioned was the increased maintenance requirements for an aircraft with stealth capability. This means daily cleaning and at least in the short term, the minimum time on deck when at sea. Also, as the F-35C does not have a HUD, the Helmet Mounted display must work.
In due course, the USN is seeking to use the F-35C as more of an information gatherer and collector. It will be able to go it alone in contested areas but more often it will be working with an Air Group of other types.
