the F-105 could literally do everything better than a F-35 on less dry thrust (14,000 lbs) with equivalent thrust to weight ratios.
You just can't let it go, huh? One more time, the F-35 thread is
here
...the F-35 minimally conforms the Whitcomb area rule.
Question for you: Do the F-14, F-15, F-17, F-18 F-22, Tornado, MiG 25, MiG 29, SU-27, etc etc "minimally conform to the Whitcomb area rule?" Your previous posts have made clear you understand little about air combat and what you know is largely misunderstood. You now appear to be working hard to show how little you know about aerodynamics. Clu4U, the F-35, like many other modern tactical aircraft and
UNlike the F-105, has lifting body aerodynamics. Think about that.
