Similarly configured, the STOVL JSF has better legs than the E/F Hornet -- Comparing apples to apples though, it will have less range than the A or C models which can carry more payload and will be more capable. I'm confused... How can the JSF have better legs than the Hornet E/F but less range than the Hornet A/C?!? Are we disallowing drop tanks and/or external/non-conformal stores? Please "picture" (configure) those 3 apples... |
