F-35B - Marine Corps Variant
The F-35B is the successor to the AV-8B Harrier II aircraft in the US Marine Corps. The F-35B is a Marine Corps variant, characterized by short takeoff and vertical landing (STOVL) capability, allowing for Operating from smaller aircraft carriers as well as from field airfields, it is capable of carrying out close support, bombing, and air combat missions. It was developed as part of the international Joint Strike Fighter program. Designed by a consortium of Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and BAE Systems, it has become a symbol of technological and combat superiority on the modern battlefield.
Sophisticated onboard computers make it a true technological jewel. It also features an integrated helmet that provides the pilot with 360-degree visibility.
The aircraft is characterized by low observability in flight, the ability to fly at supersonic speeds, and advanced reconnaissance and electronic warfare systems—including detection, tracking, targeting, and jamming.
Weapons That Spread Fear
The F-35B can carry weapons both in internal bays (to maintain stealth) and on external pylons (to increase firepower). The COBI model is equipped with the AGM-88G AARGM-ER anti-ship missile. Long-range radar systems designed to destroy surface targets, ground-based fixed and mobile radar stations.
The F-35B is a truly multi-role aircraft – capable of air combat, bombing, reconnaissance, and electronic jamming – all within a single mission.
