F-35 Joint Strike Fighter

. net... I think that they are planning on using the new small diameter bombs for ground support. Certainly no plane can carry that massive GAU8 rotary cannon. But with the radar and computers of the JSF it can easily ID several targets and program a single SDB against each. Not at the speed it will be travelling at. It will cover the battlefield in half the time of the A-10; that's a major problem. And don't forget battle damage; no aircraft flying can absorb the amount of damage an A-10 can survive. -- Alan Erskine
