Additional cooler or APU?

Through the spread between high and low band.
Then can it detect furthermore water vapour, O3 and nitrous gases.

3. Air forces recommendations (Air Force, Army, Navy, Marines)
—End production of the F-22 Raptor immediately at 183 planes.
—Continue development of the F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter, but do not start full-scale production until all flight tests have been proven completed.
–Buy F-16 Block 60 fighters, two wings of MQ-9 Reaper drones, and 69 F/A-18E/F Super Hornets to make up for the anticipated gap in fighter aircraft.
–Cancel the MV-22 Osprey and substitute cheaper helicopters while continuing production of the CV-22.
–Build more C-17 cargo aircraft.
–Move forward on the KC-X.
–Substitute MQ-1C Warrior drones for Armed Reconnaissance Helicopters.
–-Move forward on the new long-range bomber.

It depends on how high the RCS is from other angles. Obviously there are certain angles that are less optimised than others.

A strong return came from the wing, stabilizer etc. leading edge, trailing egde at 90°, therefor should a wing or stabilizer are highly sweeped.

Is this based on the golf ball statement or sourced from an actual analysis you can cite? And even assuming that number was right, which range of figures qualifies as LO and which as VLO?

A golf ball RCS can be really big. The golf ball dimension is in the suboptical range! Mi scattering and some resonance effects.

I say only ADA.;)

Wow TWO whole years late. Compare that to similar programs. Let me remind you why it’s two years late. Weight reduction issues which where solved almost three years ago. The weight optimized models have already been produced and will be starting flight testing shortly.

How much of the test programm processed. 1 or 2%? Whithout certified engines no testflight for the F-35 BF-1 (groundet since August 2008)

Don’t confuse the F-35B with the two other models. The issues with the fan blades for the lift fan do not in any way affect them.

The electrical system for the navalised F-35C variant was found to be undersized in power generation capacity, by no less than 35%, thus being unable to provide enough peak load electrical current to meet the demands of the EHC actuators when fully loaded. This resulted in two expensive remedial measures:
The Hamilton Sundstrand main electrical generator had to be redesigned to provide the total 400 kiloWatts of power output; and
The F135 engine gearbox had to be redesigned and requalified to deliver the additional power required to drive the uprated generator, this power produced in turn at the expense of available engine thrust.
F135 engine prototypes have experienced failures of the driveshaft, and an October 2007 test forced a shutdown, the cause claimed to be cracking of a third stage low pressure turbine blade. The F135 turbine runs much hotter than any earlier engine, so if this becomes the cause of a reliability or durability problem, it will have to be derated at the expense of thrust performance.

Pratt & Whitney’s F135 powerplant for the Lockheed Martin F-35 suffered a second turbine blade failure on 4 February 2008

Not the lift fan is the problem, the engine is the problem.
