(Not OP) I like em both. Maybe a slight edge to the F-22, but both are very nice jets
>>65061473
I think it's the single-engine design. Just makes her look complete, balanced, and efficient. A strong machine soul

Second gayest, forced meme of all time. Only slightly less gay and forced than the chink copy of "slim amy" and I say that as an enjoyer of the F35 and muscular women. Seriously stop being a fag and trying to equate aircraft lines to women, it ruins my boner because I wanna stick my dick into her jet exhaust, I don't want to be reminded of female ass when I'm trying to jack it to a plane. It's like peanut butter and pickles, great separate but awful together

I was in the navy with this chick that wore workout shorts with no panties when we worked out together. I could definitely see her snatch every time we did situps and she was definitely doing it on purpose

I think the F-16, F-15, and F-14 are all more visually appealing. 4th gens and down have character. All these 5th gen stealth fighters are the aircraft equivalent of everyone using multicam and multicam derivatives.

I want to start off my post by saying I am not a homosexual
patrician, high class thinkers like myself prefer slim women, you just wouldn’t get it.
I am also not gay, unless getting pegged once makes me a fag(hint, it doesn’t)

Everyone is allowed one gay action in life and not be labeled gay for it, how else are you supposed to know if you're gay or not? However I will argue till my dying breath that anytime something goes up your ass and it isn't for medical purposes is gay

to me things that are physically stealth look sexy, all of them. even the fake chinese ones.

USAF crew chief here
I have seen them close up in person
F-35 is ugly as sin. It looks like the bastard child of a balloon, F-16, and F-18. The new chubby kid at school. It is ugly as sin in person. I have no idea how anyone could find it visually appealing.
The F-22 is gorgeous. What an absolutely sexy aircraft. It is just as pretty as it is in the photos.

They’re experimenting with letting the f-35 carry more munitions, but it’s just that there isn’t really a use case at the moment, especially for the US that has so many other platforms to act as fox-3 slingers.
You’d probably only see an f-35 carrying external munitions in militaries where it’s their only strike aircraft, like if Australia retires their f/a-18s or smth.

That's what all you flyboys say. You all call her "fat amy". I suspect the phenomenon is similar to how some people separate aesthetics from practicality, while others view practicality as perfection.
When I look at the f-35, all I see is peak performance.
>>
>>
>>65069481
Yeah, the image and concept is old. As I said there’s just no use case, but if there was one they would be able to add multipylons and whatnot.
The US would rather just buy more f-15EXs though then make a stealth aircraft carry more bombs.
I probably should have said ‘they’ve experimented’ rather then ‘they’re experimenting’.

The f-35 seems to be too limited by the initial scope of its design as a low tier stealth plane. The more modern concepts that everyone else are looking into generally have much internal weapon bays. Except the kf-21. South Korea isn't even trying.

>>65069474
Flyboy is a pilot. They fly the planes. I am a crew chief. I fix the planes. Those are different things.
I said they are ugly. Aesthetically displeasing to the eye. I did not say anything about the practicality or performance of the aircraft. Those are different things.
Has reading comprehension really gotten this bad?

Thing is with the f-35 was that it wasn’t necessarily meant as a light stealth plane and more as a forward set of sensors for other platforms carrying the real payloads that had the capability to quietly remove any major threats to the 4th gen jets following them.
It’s advantage is its data link capabilities and sensor suite not its firepower, hence why the f-35 is slated for service for the next half century and the f-22 is fighting for an actual purpose since none of the threat it was meant to fight have ever manifested.
It isn’t completely dire though, pretty soon the internal payload of the f-35 will be getting a bump with smaller precision agms as well as upgraded racks for 6 total aamrams. It ain’t a carpet bomber but it’s more then capable of taking apart enemy forces.

That's a poor marketing move. It makes customers not buy the initial product. They hold off until the later model is out. It deprives the company the crucial funding they need to make the "real" model. This is what killed the hudson H9.

I think people forget how small a plane it really is, too. It's barely bigger than a Viper. The whole reason it has shoe unflattering angles is because it's a tiny plane built around a single fuckhuge engine. That it has comparable internal weapons capacity to the Raptor is pretty impressive, and it's designed to allow for bigger A2G munitions that won't fit in an F-22.
