[About the actual machine]
The Japan Air Self-Defense Force has begun deploying the F-35A Lightning II as a successor to the F-4 and F-15 fighter jets.
It is a fifth-generation multirole fighter jet developed internationally, led by Lockheed Martin of the United States.
This single aircraft was designed to be capable of a variety of missions not only for the Air Force, but also for the Navy and Marine Corps.
While they share the same basics, they have different specifications depending on how they are operated.
The conventional takeoff and landing type F-35A was developed for the Air Force.
The aircraft is equipped with a single Pratt & Whitney F135 turbofan engine.
The aircraft has a highly stealthy shape and is equipped with a weapon bay, within which missiles and other armaments can be stored.
Additionally, there are six hardpoints under the wings.
It went into operation in 2016, and was deployed and put into operation by the Japan Air Self-Defense Force in 2018, where it serves as the latest main fighter aircraft.
