How much payload do you lose in the STOVL version? http://www.faqs.org/docs/air/avf35.html The F-35A and F-35C can carry two 900 kilogram (2,000 pound) JDAMS internally, while the STOVL F-35B is limited to internal carriage of two 450 kilogram (1,000 pound) JDAMs. .... Only the USAF F-35A has a built-in gun, with an "Advanced 27 Millimeter Cannon", an improved version of the Mauser BK-27 revolver-type cannon, in the left wingroot. The other variants do not have a built-in gun, but can accommodate a cannon pack plugged into one of the weapons bays. So the answer seems to be half the internal bombs and the gun. Is a F-35B with a gun pod non-stealthy? -HJC |
