Lockheed Martin’s 5th generation F-35 is making its maiden show appearance at the ongoing airshow. The USAF’s F-35A Lightning II Demonstration Team has brought aircraft to the show, in a sign of deepening Indo-U.S. defence ties.
This is the first time, that a 5th generation fighter jet is taking part in Aero India.
The F-35A Lightning II is a stealthy, multirole, all-weather air-to-air and surface attack fighter. It will replace the U.S. Air Force’s aging fleet of F-16 Fighting Falcons and A-10 Thunderbolt II’s.
There are more than 890 F-35s in service today, with more than 1,870 pilots and 13,500 maintainers trained on the aircraft
F-35s now operate from 27 bases worldwide, with nine nations operating F-35s on their home soil. 17 nations have ordered the 5th generation fighter jet.
In January, the Government of Canada announced today it would purchase 88 F-35A multirole stealth fighters for the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF).
