Description:
ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!/nBe sure to read the accompanying textbelow: ONE OF THE BEST AIRCRAFT VIDEOS EVER !!!! Well...I would say there' s nothing about this the pilot enjoys. If he could have ejected at 100 ' upside down and lived, he would have. Looks like the afterburner kicks in while still vectored for vertical takeoff. Lockheed would call this a "software malfunction" and do a little more "regressive testing". Good demo of power-to-weight ratio of this aircraft! And stability control. If he didn't come out of the loop wings-level, probably would have been bad news, maybe taking some of the carrier with him! Flying through your own exhaust can lead to equipment malfunctions, too! As in "flame out" F-35 is single engine...unpowered and zero airspeed has aerodynamics of a Steinway piano. This is the most unbelievable piece of flying you will ever see in your life. This is how a supremely well-trained US Navy pilot, ice running in his veins instead of blood, fully regains control of his $70 million fighter jet, after a problematic vertical take-off attempt. Watch as the rear vertical thruster fires to cause the problem.
