Nope Cola, now you are confused about the helicopters 🙂

Anyway, when is programed the 35C’s first flight? or was done already?

I think in this case Occam’s Razor could be taken to heart

How can you apply the Occam’s Razor if you don’t even have any understanding on what you are talking about?

Aside the conceptual mistakes and simpleton thinking (like a shinning exhaust is transferring more energy by default)

This is what wikipedia says about the fan and thrust distribution.

The STOVL variant, F135-PW-600, delivers the same 43,000 lbf (191 kN) of wet thrust as the other types in its conventional configuration. In STOVL configuration, the engine produces 18,000 lbf (80.1 kN) of lift thrust. Combined with thrust from the LiftFan (20,000 lbf/89.0 kN) and two roll posts (1,950 lbf/8.67 kN each)

So are basically are half and half.

Anyway, i have not seen any test or proof on this “deck melting” issue, but the problem (if exist) is intrinsically related with the plane, as i said, is heavier, so will need more energy.

not the F-35C, but rather cancel the 35A and get the air force to use the Cs.

This would be the dumbest idea ever

Why the Navy is not testing the 35C? can somebody explain it?

Cooler than the air coming out of the lift fan? Are you seriously claiming that the output of a jet engine is cooler than air speeded up by that lift fan?

And since when has the exhaust temperature of a jet been proportional to the size of the aircraft it powers? I think you’ll find there’s a lot more to it than that.

Are you talking about temperature or energy?

Both are different things.

You can have high temperature, but low energy transference

You can have low temperature and higher energy transference

The thing that counts for the deformation is mainly the energy transference

The article, ok

the article might be right

You are wrong, by the concepts

The harrier exhaust is cooler , because the harrier is smaller.

That’s all

That’s all the big problem

There are videos of that igla missile hitting targets launching flares.

Did it prevent the su-27 or f-22 to carry flares? did the flares became obsolete?, no.

There are different generations of hardware, flares included.

BTW, modern flares seems to be a bit more smoky than older ones (or it’s just me), wonder if smoke has also a function for IR countermeasures…

DIRCM is a laser based system, medium-high powered lasers, in general, can’t change their frequency, although with the use of special lens they could, but is one lens per frequency, so is not very practical for a wide arrange of wavelengths, while IR seekers have the potential to detect and track more frequencies.

The deal with DIRCM compared with IRCM is that they concentrate all the energy on the threat, so they are more effective to “blind” it, but then, normal IRCM systems operate with a wider specter arrange.

Saturation can be countered with polarization, as well.

Wonder if there are towed IRCM’s, IMO this would be more effective.

and can tell you that EM waves can be cancelled and the diffraction you are talking about would be below the noise floor

You can’t, i don’t know if you have BSc in physics, you just can’t.

What you get is interference , that’s all. (interference is a pattern of cancellation/adding, but you can’t really cancel a EM wave)

When a photon born, you can’t cancel it, you could do it before it born, which is not possible for practical systems.

Even if you could set a electric potential field in which you could cancel the photon, what the emitter gets is a overcharge, because what you are doing basically is to keep the energy inside the emitter.

Please, answer me the question, 2 lasers, 180º out of phase, will they cancel each other? just answer, yes or no.

The L-band experiments aren’t specifically aimed at stealth targets. But surely they do work on them too. Actually they are more efficient against these VLO planes because of the limitations of X-band systems there.

Magazines and PR people are selling those prospected L-band AESAs as a stealth-counter

I agree

Sign, you are over-using terms like signal processing, signal data pattern, cryptical form, i can understand why you use these terms, everybody does..sound cool, but actually means nothing, i’m not criticizing you, is just that…everybody use these terms so lightly….

Aspis, ECM forcing fighters to merge are old news, very old, way older than stealth, way older than the 22/117/have blue, etc…., is why people like Riccioni hated the ATF concepts , and the relying on magical-lazy BVR fighting, garbage that was popular in the popular media in the 80’s-90’s and still now, is the real deal, is the real fighting, the dirty job, is not the “stealth counter”, not the magical tactic against the F22…again, the stealth hysteria is showing.

pfem, you are a kid, i won’t bother with your nationalist trash.
