As fast as lightning! 35 stealth fighter jets get airborne in just 11 minutes in huge military drill to prove they can deploy at a moment's notice to protect the US

    The 388th and 419th fighter wings performed the exercise at Hill Air Force Base
    The wings must be ready to launch any number of aircraft in quick succession
    For this debut drill the units launched a symbolic 35 of the F-35A jet in Utah

Show me a pic of those 35 aircraft in the air at the same time and maybe then I'll change my opinion of this propaganda piece...just because you taxied or towed 35 planes to the runway for a photo, doesn't mean you "launched" them, and the way they're positioned makes me suspicious that any of them got "airborne"...

  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.
