F35 Systems

[atpcliff]

I was talking to someone in the aerospace sector recently, when the F-35 came up.

They told me that the F-35 had an electrical system, that produced a sort of "force field" around the aircraft...the electricity radiated outside of the fuselage. The reason is because this cut the drag on the airframe by a large percentage (15%?), thus leading to more efficiency.

I said that I had only heard something like this in conjunction with UFO technology. They had not heard anything about this system being used elsewhere other than the F-35.

Comments, explanations are welcome!

Namaste...

I doubt the F-35 is so equipped.

Thanks for that info. This person mentioned it to me as if everyone knew about it...nothing special...

Just saw the above article about electricity used to improve efficiency.

I also read an interesting web page about the B2 and how that aircraft also used generated electricity to improve it's efficiency, by reducing drag about 60%.

That'll be the ion drive where they can shut down the jets and fly unrefuelled for ever. You can tell when the ion drive is being used because a white plasma cloud forms on top of the wing. So the internet tells us, must be true. The internet tells me the moon is made of blue cheese and the world is flat, though some believe it's spherical and hollow.

Rather than dismissing the concept out
of hand I’d check with Captain Kirk


He did rather well with his force fields
