F-35B Lightning II Vertical Landing and Takeoff Aboard the USS Wasp

U.S. Marines and Sailors conduct 24-hour flight operations in international airspace aboard the USS Wasp (LHD 1) in the Philippine Sea. Maritime prepositioning enables deployment flexibility and an increased capability to respond rapidly to a crisis or contingency with a credible presence.

The F-35B is the short takeoff and vertical landing (STOVL) variant of the aircraft. Similar in size to the A variant, the B sacrifices about a third of the A variant’s fuel volume to accommodate the vertical flight system. Unlike other variants, the F-35B has no landing hook. The “STOVL/HOOK” control instead engages conversion between normal and vertical flight. Jet thrust is sent directly downwards during vertical flight.

  2. Their was no take off all it was a normal launch as any plane would have done and it only hovers up and down

  3. هناك خلل بسيط في الهندسة . الغطاء الذي فوق مقصورة القيادة لا يساعد الطائرة للإقلاع بسرعة للأمان . يجب طيه على الجانبين او جعله ينزلق الى الخلف

  4. Although it is already a exceptional plane, the landing is perfect but the fact that it need to go forward to lift up, even if it’s a short distances, is the only kinda flaw of this plane, if it could go up as it land, this thing would be the perfect weapons.

  5. How does it slow down so fast when switching between horizontal and vertical flight for a landing? Is air braking really that efficient?
