As they teach in any college psychology class, the IQ test was designed to point out people with learning deficiencies. So while it is accurate is spotting people of low intelligence, the inverse isn't true.  It's not very good at pointing out people with high intelligence.  Besides that fact, there are many different types of intelligence.  While I haven't researched this part, the IQ test is probably only suitable for something called "crystalline" or "fixed" intelligence.

Excellent article for a US F35 pilot who just flew in a 4 ship exercise.  Very fair IMO, pilot comes across as pretty honest.  Looks like he's pretty happy and impressed so far.  Bodes well, I hope.

You don't have to fantasize about who you are, or who your friends are. It does not support your argument for or against the F-35. We already know it's an under-powered, overweight, over budget, technical marvel that the Pentagon will be forced to use whether it wants to, or not.

its a drone plane, i believe what this guy says you would have to talk to him he has like tons of phds and stuff  :cool: besides how would you know what an f35 flies like? ever flown one? or an f16?  :airplane:

It's not just "painting" a target for another platform to shoot. It is sharing the sensor data directly via data link so that every platform in the system has a common sensor picture and can use that to guide their weapons. Exactly how the system works is classified for obvious reasons, but a couple of years ago Billie Flynn gave us some insight:



Follow-up question: does this also mean that the F-35 tied into the second party sensor need not reveal itself? I'm taking it to be a big YES. IE, you can maintain your stealth in aircraft A by using the active sensing of aircraft B.

Yes, that's exactly how I read it. All these platforms will be networked so they share a common sensor picture. In the test they just did it allowed a SAM site to fire a SM-6 missile at a target without using its own radar (the shot was in fact below the horizon and thus the range of its own radar,) instead using sensor information from the F-35 to guide the missile to its target.
