The F-35 isn’t perfect—but perfection isn’t why it dominates.

Critics love to point out its price tag, its early software bugs, or that it’s “not as fast” as older fighters. But ask any pilot who’s flown it in joint exercises—this aircraft changes the fight before the first missile leaves the rail. The F-35 is a battle network node in the sky. It sees further, shares more, and coordinates faster than anything else out there. Against Russia’s Su-57 or China’s J-20, the advantage isn’t just stealth—it’s the ability to turn an entire strike package into one integrated weapon. Wars aren’t won by the fastest plane anymore. They’re won by the one that makes the other side blind, deaf, and out of position before they even know what hit them. The F-35 was built for exactly that. #Military #F35 #AirPower
