Today we look at two really awesome aircraft and get an understanding of the differences between them

転換語

Partially due to the fact that there has been much controversy over

Whether one aircraft should be replaced by the other at least within the United States today

We look at the differences between the historical f-16 and the battle-proven

F-35 how's it going? Everybody? Welcome to FTD facts. My name is Dave Walpole and today

Yeah, we're gonna look at the f-16 and the f-35 me. I'm a big fan of the f-16

I think it's one of my favorite fighters in the modern world, but the f-35, you know

There's a lot of people that say it's just a really good aircraft. But like I said

So check out this really addictive game. I really think you guys will like it but let's get started on the video

The f-16 is sleek. Its slender and it's just one awesome aircraft

it has been around since the 1970s designed originally by General Dynamics now, basically

manufactured by Lockheed Martin it started its service in

1978 after its first flight commenced in nineteen new form. Now one of the many reasons for the creation of the single-seat fighter and bomber

Was because of the lessons learned from the f4 phantom

Experiences in Vietnam basically, the f4 phantom was a very good fighter. The only downside is it did get shot down quite a bit in

Vietnam and therefore the United States of America wanted to minimize that as well. There was the f-15 which was a somewhat good aircraft

which came before and of course research and development from the f-15 one into the

F-16 the f-15, although being a very good fighter did have its problems. One of the big problems was that not only was it?

Expensive but it was a rather large aircraft to be doing dogfighting with now the f-35

it's very interesting how this fighter came to be very similar to how the

F16 began to be a more cheap and effective improvement off of the f-15

the f-35 is sometimes considered a cheaper more effective improvement off of the

F-22 Raptor the f-22 Raptor was a major improvement on technology

but the downside was it was not only costly but there wasn't a lot of

customization options for foreign buyers as

Well with the introduction of the f-35 the Navy Marines got an opportunity to request that this fighter have a different engine built within it

made for vertical takeoff to replace the Harriers that the Navy currently was downsizing and this just wasn't a feature that the

eventually this all led to the cancellation of the f-22 and in

Ironically though for the f-35 the B versions which are the ones that have the VTOL ability was introduced first into the military

Before the more conventional take off versions were available. So for combat history, let's just take a look at the obvious

F-16s than there are f-35s. That's because it's been around for a long time in today's world

there are currently at least four thousand six hundred and four of these f-16 fighters being made as of

2018 making it the world's most numerous fixed-wing aircraft the f-35 however has at least

380 of these aircrafts made as of 2019 now looking at the f-16

It has had an operational history in the United States Israel

Jordan as well within Europe there has been the Netherlands Belgium Denmark Norway in which all of these countries listed have either flown

there's also Venezuela Morocco Bharani and countries like Croatia and Slovakia have interest in these fighters and

2018 Italy actually did fly of 16s at one point

But the lease was up some time ago and with that so far

They say that there was at least 25 Air Forces from around the world that operate the f-16 for the f-35

The United States is pretty much the main operator

Lockheed Martin stated that there are other countries that are in the process of getting full squadrons or are in development of these deals

These are the countries like the United Kingdom, Australia

the Netherlands in the lead Denmark Norway, Japan, Belgium, Canada

However has been back and forth of whether or not they should invest as well as the country of Norway

Turkey at one point did have an interest in this aircraft. However, unfortunately there was a transfer ban between them

This is because turkey was interested in Russia's s400 air defense system

Which is one of the best airforce defense systems in the world

This is simply because the f-35 is made to beat the S 400 series

You don't want to give away too many years secrets

Besides that there is also a large amount of countries that do have interest in the f-35, but nothing's really moved forward

For variants though. Let's take a look now. Yes, the f16 has a lot of them

But like I said, it's been around for a long time

Originally starting off with the a and B versions B being the two-seater

which is now pretty much the E and F version of the C and D version there is also the

F-16 n which has some minor changes specific to the Navy keep in mind within these different versions

There's also a lot of other versions that have specific changes

certain types of jobs on top of that there is country versions and a couple of offshoot fighters that come from the

F16 such as the South Korean Kait 50 Golden Eagle and Japan's Mitsubishi

F2 the f-35 however has three main versions

You've got a B and C a is your traditional take off and you've got B which classifies as a VTOL aircraft?

C however is a little bit larger in its wings as a matter of fact

its wings actually fold up this helps the C version handle better at lower speeds and it's good for

aircraft takeoff and storage the f-35 I is one that is being developed for Israel and it features Israeli countermeasures and

Electronics which the United States eventually had to agree to ask for other upgrades

There's the f-35 D but that's kind of in talks and thought of development

However, they have no plans to do a major upgrade until about

Let's take a look one major difference is that the f-35 is classified as a stealth fighter the f16 obviously is not

Both are single-engine fighters and do classify both as multi-role aircraft
