The 8th Fighter Squadron painted their F-16 Viper flagship a sleek matte black in honor of the F-117 Nighthawk previously located at Holloman AFB. The F-117 remains an iconic symbol of stealth technology and was retired in 2008.

The haters are laughing while their F-35's are too afraid to go up against Yemen.
And the haters will not understand the depth of above.
Things China needs to do before 2026.
1️⃣Sail our carrier battle groups to Hawaii.
2️⃣Fire a salvo of ballistic missiles over Hawaii as our carrier group approaches.
3️⃣Scrap the "No First Use" nuclear weapon policy.
This will serve as China's Great White Fleet moment.

It is all propaganda. F-35 has lot of flaws to be fixed in electronics and software which are expertise of West. J-20 is better than F-22 and F-35. SU-57 is lot better than all. USSR started stealth technology. Production is better for F-35. China is catching up in production.

The problems he is talking about are inherit with the airframe itself. It's too fat, wings are too short, it's being asked to do the role of 5 airframes instead of 1 or 2. It's not great at any of the roles.
You'd the the military would have learned it's lesson with the F4. 1/
KC-135 - Boeing
F-35 - Boeing
737 - Boeing
What is wrong with our Air Force? Why are we using Boeing? One one week, all Boeing!
Idk is this how Blue Check tweets work or what?

AIR FORCE TRYING TO DEFUND A-10 WARTHOG ONCE AGAIN
Retiring A-10s will guarantee American pilots come home from combat, because they're not being shot down in a reinforced bucket with pylons and a modern combat environment.
Ultimately defunding the A-10 is good.

AIR FORCE TRYING TO DEFUND A-10 WARTHOG ONCE AGAIN
Retiring A-10s will guarantee American soldiers die due to the lack of the effective close air support that only the A-10 can provide.
Ultimately defunding the A-10 is all about getting more money and maintenance personnel
F-35 haters trying not to use " proof " that isn't a guy who tried to convince the USAF to use an aircraft without a radar, no missiles, no pylons, and only a gun to contest the F-15, the most successful fighter in history, as their proof challenge ( impossible ) .
I don't think people understand what this means.
That means the F-35 mirror coat was successful enough in whatever task it was given that they're now putting it on operational units' jets.
Very interesting photos of an F-35C landing on the USS Abraham Lincoln off the coast of California yesterday.
The jet was outfitted with the mirror-like coating previously seen on other F-35s (as well as F-22s and F-117s) on its tails and wings. I think this is the first...

There is anti stealth, same way there is anti slow aircraft.
The F-35 has vastly higher situational awareness with DAS, and can take images of the battlespace more accurately, and in higher resolution than any fighter before.
Flares and a towed decoy are on the F-35...

With Advances In Anti-Stealth Tech Vastly Outpacing Stealth Tech for Planes, F-35 will Be Far More Vulnerable in Peer to Peer Battlespace than the A-10
The A-10 uses terrain and nap of the earth flying to successfully avoid anti-air defense and has ECM/ECW that provides it
