As a ground support vehicle it looks nice..but I prefer the A10 for that role STOVL or not. :) Of course Im not a pilot so my opinion is worth about as much as the ink in this message ;)
Impressive. Am reminded of that joke on the Phantom II. With enough thrust, can make a brick fly. Seems something similar can apply to the F-35B.
It seems they moved away from the Harrier being ticky due to F-402 placement to installing a lift fan that is dead weight in flight. Not sure if that is an improvement.
Speaking of thrust; if the F-35B does not get its weight under control, will some Admiral named Tom get before Congress and say there is not enough thrust in all of Christiandom to save it?

I'll be sure to lodge your complaint with my friend on the team. "Evil", right? *snicker*
Neatest dang thing since spray cheese.
