i had faith in the F35, but now....

You will never know the capabilities of it.

Neither will pilots or maintenance crews. They will know how to fly it and how to fix it.

Is there such a thing as being invisible to radar?

Let's replace the word radar with sensor.

Now you have thermal, IR, radio (radar) and OPTICAL.

So if something is heat neutral, non reflective of all wavelengths and radio frequencies, it is still visible.

Have you ever seen pixelated camouflage? Taiwan uses it a lot. That is designed to confuse computer software (zoom in on an image in paint until you can see pixels and you will figure it out) hooked up to OPTICAL sensors.

Possibly the most stupid comment Ive seen here in a long while.


Just shows how little you know about the depth of capability of the RAAF or any modern airforce for that matter.


Just copy out the techy stuff that makes you look like you know what your are talking about and most definitely leave out your personal opinions on these types of matters, it makes you look very stupid.

If you know the specific capabilities of the electronics, not say, that it can identify a target at 2000m, then you would not be permitted to travel overseas or discuss the issue publicly or confirm that you have a defence connection.

The pilots don't know what it can do. Neither do the maintenance crews.
