The JSF Joint Strike Fighter programme was set up to develop a new fifth-generation all-weather multirole fighter to constitute a valid substitute for current ground attack aircraft in the United States and NATO countries. From the project was born the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II. Equipped with extraordinary technology it is characterized by the adoption of an aerodynamic layout, with stealth features, trapezoidal wing. Designed to carry out missions of air superiority, close air support and ground attack, its cell can be declined in different configurations. The F-35B thanks to its STOVL capabilities has been designed for landing and vertical take-off and to operate from aircraft carriers such as the Queen Elizabeth of the Royal Navy or the Cavour of the Italian Navy. Also used by the Marine Corps is characterized by the adoption of the Pratt & Whitney engine with afterburner and downward adjustable exhaust nozzle. The extreme operational flexibility, the offensive load that is capable of transporting, the on-board technology and the strong innovation of the project, will make the F-35 Lightning II a sure protagonist of the 21st century Air Force.
