 F-35A stealth fighter drops mock nuclear bomb in flight test

Two major US defense initiatives recently came together as a US Air Force F-35A Lightning II dropped a mock refurbished B61-12 nuclear bomb for the first time. The test, which took place over Sandia National Laboratories' Tonopah Test Range in Nevada on August 25, saw the 5th-generation fighter release the bomb from an internal bay while flying at supersonic speed.

The F-35 has been garnering a lot of attention as it moves to full deployment after almost two decades of development. Its well-known qualities of stealth, advanced sensors, supersonic speed, and network-ability make it as much a command center as a fighter plane, but it is still first and foremost a weapon system designed to deliver ordnance on target.

The F35 is a useless hunk of krap, it was designed to be a vertical takeoff and landing jet that would not need a carrier to operate.

Total failure which is why the USA is selling them to everyone who will sell the plans to Russia and China
