The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter Vertical Landing is the latest that the US Military has achieved that they can boast about and all for good reason. Through the dedication of the F-35 team and the expertise of the technology and the engineering that was used and carried out and successfully executed, this vertical landing has proved to the world that this supersonic machine can actually land in constricted spaces (this experimental landing was carried out in a space of ninety five square meters) whether afloat or even if it is on shore and land. This kind of a vertical landing could only have been possible through the advanced and innovative technology that they have used and this certainly is a feat which is a milestone for military aviation and all the great possibilities it has now opened up.

The representative of the team for this Lockheed Martin experiment were proud to announce this achievement which took place on 18th March of this month and they were pleased to inform that vertical landing for the F-35 only means that the security measures and goals that the US Military aims at for their own country as well as for the help that they will extend to their allied nations and their military as well- will only benefit greatly from this kind of a breakthrough achievement in naval aviation.
This is actually something of a very unique capability that this supersonic Fighter aircraft has achieved and hopefully this can only be improved upon and eventually be bettered as this was only a practice flight and landing that was met with success. Not only is the F-35 the world’s most advanced fifth generation fighter aircraft at the moment but this only adds to the unending possibilities of the machine- a feather to the military’s cap.
