wrote: The F119 engines make sufficient thrust to allow high altitude supersonic cruise at a Mach somewhat less than Mach 2 while not requiring any significant change to the current fixed inlets. The tradeoff is a significant reduction in range. I thought the requirement for adjustable inlets was to avoid the supersonic shockwave impinging on the compressor and stalling the engine. If so, then the thrust of the F-119 isn't oging to help at all. Peter Kemp
