F-35 Lightning II: Full Demonstration

2019 is the first year that the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is doing full demonstrations at air shows. This one is seen at the Cleveland National Airshow.

Being an old carrier sailor I'm in awe of what this plane can do.

[frankcrawford]

The way it can fall flat out of the sky, then power out is incredible.

1:22 look at that beautiful vapor cone. Gives me goosebumps.

[garybeauchamp]

I can't imagine the thrill it must be to fly one of these planes.

[utkarshg.bharti]

Beautiful design. Much respect and admiration to American engineering. You guys truly have phenomenal aeronautical engineers!

Here after seeing top gun 2, beautiful!

3:15 most beautiful part of vid, Stunning!

[HeyBigChriss]

Well, wish me luck. I’m applying to USAF, USN, and USMC hopefully to fly fighters and fulfill my life long dream! I’m in flight school now with about 45 hours. If I remember, I’ll come back and keep y’all updated in my journey.

AWESOME! The video brought back childhood memories of not only hearing, but also feeling a sonic boom. The most incredible, yet scary "boom" I've ever heard. I'm sure glad the U.S. has these magnificent war-birds in their arsenal.

I picked an argument with a friend who dissed the F35 until I showed him this video the expression on his face was priceless

I was there and didn't 👀 you. The F-35 is amazing to see in person ✔️

[BoxheadHakx]

This is soo incredible at making me feel safe in these trying times. Knowing that this plane's capabilities were tested in excess in 2006 makes this more or less the "modern-classic" of the last generation, like the F-22 has been for so long.

[KernowekTim]

A superb machine. Art in motion, stealth in nature: comforting to the West.

[austang]

Starting at 3:22 the way it's able to move like that is astonishing.

[PiperAtTheGatesOfYourMom]

Stuff like this is why I’m happy to be in the Air Force :)

[jefferyyounce]

I'm proud to say I work on the F35 program as a ALIS Adminstration\DBA.

[xjArieswar]

I've been keeping up with the F-35 since 2008 & this version of it looks straight up super charged or something. WOW

[xoiwlwiox]

I admit I was one of the antagonistic voices against the program 5 years ago, and still skeptical. That's an impressive flight demonstration, without a doubt. That kind of maneuverability is insane. Valuable against surface to air I assume. Air-to-air is over the horizon. Fancy is cool but impractical. Its value is as a component of a network, with air-to-air superiority as a 2ndary benefit. It's fun to watch it maneuver. I'd like to see what it can really in its intended role.

[JonBoltinghouse]

just remember the Wright brothers started it all
I wonder what they would say if they were standing in this crowd watching

[claudiocarbone]

Goosebumps! Hell yeah love this plane From Italy! Our air Force has them
