=VG= Kavelenko Posted September 29, 2018 at 10:14 PM Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 at 10:14 PM I still reckon the Harrier lands smoother and with more control than that F35, holy crap they must damage the under-carriage a lot! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

=VG= SemlerPDX Posted October 4, 2018 at 06:02 PM Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 at 06:02 PM Can the F-35 fly at night yet? It's been awhile since I heard that so I imagine maybe it can by now... if it's being sold, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
