The Navy F-35C Lightning II Demonstration Team showcases the future of carrier-based naval aviation. As the aircraft carrier variant of the F-35, the F-35C is built for power projection from the sea, combining 5th-generation stealth, advanced sensors, and supersonic performance with the rugged capability required for aircraft carrier operations. Its wings are more than 20% larger than the other F-35 variants, giving the aircraft greater lift and control for the demanding launches and arrested landings required aboard U.S. Navy aircraft carriers. That larger wing also gives the F-35C a distinctly different look from the F-35A and F-35B, with a broader, more commanding profile that reflects its unique mission at sea. Its demonstration highlights the speed, agility, precision, and cutting-edge technology...
