Faa Jsf Fixed Winged Tanker

Hello,

The FAA will use the JSF on it’s two new ‘super’ carriers obviously. And am I right in saying that when a JSF is fully loaded and it’s vertical landing mode is used, the fuel demands will be high and thus effect the range of the airraft. So will the FAA have to use a fixed wing air to air refueling aircraft, like the USN Vikings, or a ‘buddy’ JSF tanker?
