This pilot may says he just pushes a button, but he not telling you about the 100 decisions a minute he needs to make on any sortie and in the battle field if any one of those decisions were wrong it could result in serious consequences including death. Fifth Gen fighters is about creating an integrated battle field, linking all the assets together. The more automated and easy they can make the aircraft, the more the pilot can focus on his job which is to destroy enemy assets. In flight school the easy part is learning to fly the plane, most people could do that, the hard part is using the plane as a weapon and that's why its so hard to make the cut as a fighter pilot and why they put so much pressure on during training, even cutting good pilots, that don-t respond to the pressure. They don't want pilots to fly the plane they want a person who can operate an airborne weapon system under extreme condition including risk of death, while remaining calm and cognitive. Also its good to see, some of the more risky parts of a STOL aircraft is now automated, the Harrier was notoriously difficult to fly, with not a great safety record although its proved its worth in the Falkland's war.

I just downloaded the F35 in Flight Sim 2020 and I know it's only a computer sim, but it gives you the flavor of how it's operated and how complex it is. Very impressive. The power available from just one engine is incredible. Just flying, navigating and landing takes all my concentration. That doesn't include radar, weapons, chaff, flares, communicating with others, etc.

Today's pilots are not just pilots, they are so many other things. I can't imagine the workload on a modern fighter even with all the computers to help. Hats off to everyone involved in this amazing plane from designers to pilots.

But I digress, You are right, it is very difficult to even estimate vertical speed looking ouside and maintain accurate vertical position over a location without accurate cues. No help from non existing ground effect, as present during landing a helicopter. What I was thinking is a future adaptation to civil aviation, because there, the vast majority of accidents happen during the take off and landing phases. Automating separately a short take off, climb, and esprecially to introduce automated vertical landing is, the progress I am referring to. Tried and proven with the F-35B, the key justification words. That is a game changer : short runways, except for emergencies, locally better access possible, with electric, quiet vertical lift used.

The F-35 Rocks. love the advanced technology and capability this aircraft has.

One of the most challenging aspect of becoming a fighter pilot to this day, I believe, remains to try to not weather out as quickly as possible by constantly withstanding all those g forces. I mean weighing 5 to 6 times your body weight...I’ve heard pilots say it’s like you’ve just climbed mountains in an hour and now all you want to do is sleep like a baby. No, it’s not easy at all.

What rolls Royce did with this F35 really elevated an already fantastic engineering design, proud to have worked on these!

Imagine all the training for these guys: College (usually USNA), Marine Boot Camp, regular Flight School, F35 Flight School. Any one of them can cut you from the team.

I think this is one of the coolest and astonishing piloting. Everything about fighter planes and their attire is awesome.

Wish my father had access to this kind of technology, he was a marine on the front lines of the Vietnam war. Got wounded twice, and was sent home, only to die in a motorcycle accident on the way to work. I know, it's ironic. And I'm now older than he was when he died. Even after he was sent home, everything within him wanted to go back. He loved being a marine. Also, I didn't know that it could land vertically. Very interesting.

Pretty sure many countries' fighter pilots go through similar training too. Simulation, briefing, flight inspection, mission planning, actual flying, debrief etc.

Compared to the Harrier the F-35B has made vertical takeoff and short take off so so easy. All they really have to do is just push a button to get the engine to turn down and thrust to get the plane in the air. Compare that with the Harrier where you are constant using levers, and switches to get the plane vertical takeoff. The F-35B and it's electronics have made it so much easier for pilots.

@Paul Foreskin I love seeing these American boot lickers praising the f-35 despite losing 1.4 trillion dollars. The f-35 has experienced many failures in systems and has caused many problems with the military and congress. Some many argue it's still being experimented with and it's still experimental but the su-57 is still an experimental aircraft and people are calling it the blunder of the century. Just because you're some hyper patriot doesn't mean you can spew western propaganda

@@GowthamNatarajanAI Canada needs them, the F-35 is so promising. It's going to be the best fighter jet out there.

Holy shit! The amount of research, work, and funding that goes into everything (I mean a little sensor that inflates the life vest automatically upon reaching the water...cmon!!!) is insane. This is where I realize that the US has one hell of an army, because everything is extremely well thought and meticulously planned. And to top that off, the amount of experience they have is insanely high...I mean, a third generation fighter pilot? There are whole countries younger than that...

thats pretty sick as someone whos scared of heights i admire them a lot damn they're fearless

Awesome, beautiful,exciting.

While I still think the B model should have just had its own competition (the complexity of fitting V/STOL capability being one of the things that slowed the entire program,) this *is* quite a capable aircraft. It's set to sit in the middle of a lot of other tech being worked on - "Loyal wingman" drones, for instance. It's a flying, missile launching, bomb dropping data center.

It probably would've gotten cancelled. It would go along that lines of "The Marine core doesn't need a stealth jet in this threat environment". The raptor got cancelled. I think that only thing saved it was the fact that it was a package deal.

Forget the helmet, I love the glass shell - amazing visibility

So cool that they got Conan to do the voiceover.
