Watch The Navy’s Newest Fighter Jet Make Its First Landing On A Super Carrier
This is the new F-35C Lightning II carrier variant and what you’re seeing is its first arrested landing on the USS Nimitz (CVN-68) near the coast of San Diego.
After yesterday’s run, test pilot Cmdr. Tony Wilson said:
“It is the culmination of many years of hard work by a
talented team of thousands. I’m very excited to see America’s newest aircraft on the flight deck of her oldest aircraft carrier, the USS Nimitz.”
The F-35C can reach a speed of Mach 1.6 (~ 1,200 mph) and has the ability to collect environmental data during operations.
The capabilities of the F-35 are explained in detail by manufacturer, Lockheed Martin:
“Advanced electronic warfare (EW) capabilities enable F-35 pilots to locate and track enemy forces, jam radars and disrupt attacks with unparalleled effectiveness. Advanced avionics give the pilot real-time access to battle space information with 360-degree coverage and an unparalleled ability to dominate the tactical environment.”
