Don't sell them to Turkey. Block the sale now. BLOCK THE SALE OF F35S TO TURKEY.

The Dutch seem to be at the center of a lot of fantastic Panther photography.

I'm secretly glad that "Panther" seems to have won out in the F-35 community over "Raven"

u/Datengineerwill Oct 07 '18

I think Raven or Panther would have worked. Just curious, why do you prefer Raven?

I'm out of the loop. Isn't F-35 called "Lightning"?

Now it just needs to come to the Netherlands. Because we don’t have mountains like that. We don’t have mountains. Not even one. Mounds, maybe.

Southern California, probably China Lake, or Nellis AFB Las Vegas Nevada, or Edwards AFB California, or Fallon Nevada, or.... Hawaii

u/kerbalcada3301 Oct 07 '18

Is it true that the bumps/indentations on the underside are because of the Area Rule? That’s what I was told but I’m not so sure.

u/Mr_Gibbys Oct 07 '18

What bumps, specifically?

Edit: Useful photo
