Wings like the X32 have low drag at high speed, and relatively high drag at low speed due to the angle of attack needed. I imagine that wing design was chosen for super cruise reasons.

X32 is British VTOL technology which can't go supersonic
X35 is Russian VTOL technology which can go supersonic

Neither should have been made the "template" for two other versions which don't have to be VTOL

1 out of 3

0 out of 1

X-32 was at its core a Harrier bodykit with conventional variants. The X-35 was a conventional aircraft with a STOVL variant. For all the problems with the F-35 program, the aircraft itself was excellent for what it was designed for, while the X-32/F-32 would have struggled to meet even original requirements, let alone what the JSF program ended up expanding into.

The idea existed independently of Russian aerospace which is all that matters.

A plane who's design predates the YAK-141 contract by 2 years, yet uses the same VTOL configuration.

The Model 200? That's a design that was a concept for the '70s era Sea Control Ship.

The Lockheed STOVL concepts it was working on prior to the JSF had a configuration much closer to the Convair Model 200 than what they ended up going with on the F-35.

A nonfunctional attempt to patent evil empire tech, F35 doesnt use it. Plenty of sources say Yakovlev was brought in to consult by Lockheed.

Russian aerospace was paid to consult on F35 thats all that matters.

F-35 is angry plane. X-32 is happy plane. Downright jovial really.

>it’s a copy!
>Russia only helped with some data!
These are conflicting ideas. The idea for the lift system was already present in the western aerospace industry, Lockheed just decided to save some money and utilized some of Yaks technical data. Additionally, the F-35 uses a driveshaft driven lift fan rather than two vertical turbines like the Yak so the only similarity is the three bearing nozzle which, as already established, was something already discovered in America.

No one said it was a copy pig. >X35 is Russian VTOL technology which can go supersonic
They said it's their tech, which is 100% correct.

Indeed. What could have been. The X-32 gets a bad wrap because of it's design iteration during testing, but changes were already planned before cancellation.

Which part of the tech? Be specific.

I don't have to be specific, Lockmart bought the designs of Yak 141 and even funded Yak 141 for a while as long as they got to be part of the project. There is an established link and tech transfer.

At most the only thing Lockheed used in any serious manner was the flight data

>You want the details of a technology transfer between two defense contractors because you know no one on Jow Forums has that, and when they tell you they don't you can cling to that as some shield from the fact that YOU WERE PROVEN WRONG
just like how you cling to the idea that because they both have VTOL takeoff that the f-35 must be the spawn of the yak? you can't find anything that says it is or it isn't so that must be the case though, right? the levels are irony are palpable to the point i could feed your country with it, you stupid fag.

>At most the only thing Lockheed used in any serious manner was the flight data technology
Thanks for agreeing.

They use the same system of VTOL and Yakovlev worked with Lockheed on it. Why is this so hard for you to accept?

Truly impressive.
I want proof that it was russian tech instead “well Lockheed participated in the program so that means their VTOL system is Russian.” Because that statement is complete nonsense.

What we know.
>the three bearing nozzle had already existed in the west for decades before the tech transfer
>the F-35 does not make use of the dual lift jet system developed by Yak
Seeing as these are absolutely true, what could have even POSSIBLY been the tech shared during the transfer?

Answer: Lockheed wanted to utilize Yak’s flight data on the twin lift system instead of pointlessly carrying out tests themselves. This was a case of parallel development where the Russians had a slight advantage in that’s they already had an airframe flying. LM took advantage of this by paying Yak for info relating to their tests as they were developing a similar, but different, system.

Literally a partner in the JSF submission for X35, what the thread is about, but you retards want to claim there's no connection.

lol

Supercruise was a design requirement for the JSF program which was dripped once it was clear the F-35 couldn't do it. Also, the X-32 VTOL design prototype lost because it couldn't go supersonic, even though the program officials had told Boeing that was fine for the purposes of testing.

Military procurement is a huge, rigged, joke of a show for funneling tax money into criminal corporate pockets.

>All the more hilarious that F-35 can't supercruise.
Can't really go past transonic speeds without damaging RAM and becoming nonstealthy.

Is this generally a correct statement:

And if no, why not?

What Russian technology? 3BSN is US tech, and the lift fan concept has existed since the 1960s with the vast majority of aircraft that used it being not Russian in origin.

Why was Yakovlev a partner in the X35 design if there was no technology transfer?

You're massively misrepresenting things.

The X-32 as presented in evaluations:
>was unable to go supersonic in the VTOL configuration
>used a STOVL system that was objectively inferior to that of the X-35
>required significant stripping down to go supersonic in conventional configuration
>had conventional versions compromised by the unusual center of gravity forced on it by the Harrier-like STOVL system
>failed to meet agility requirements
>didn't actually reflect Boeing's proposed final design due to aforementioned shortcomings
>made use of a technically ambitious single-piece composite wing

Compare that to the X-35, which
>took off vertically, went supersonic, and landed vertically all in a single flight
>had a significantly more capable VTOL system that didn't force major design compromises on the conventional variants
>used a more conventional layout and construction
>closely reflected what Lockheed's actual final proposal was going to be

The only thing that was really unfair about that evaluation process was the fact that Lockheed held the patent on what was really the only viable system for what was asked.

Already brought up hereYakovlev transferred technical data to Lockheed to speed up flight testing of the X-35, since both it and the Yak-41 use a two-post system for VTOL.

You're completely whitewashing the process clean of corruption to try and make it sound like a fair comparison, which it wasn't. I'm not saying the X-32 should have won, I'm saying the ENTIRE JSF PROGRAM, from conception to production, was a sham being scripted by con artists to funnel money to Lockmart regardless of whatever trash designs got sent to production.

Shocking that you seem incapable of understanding this simple point from what I wrote, considering you're probably paid to refute it here.

You may be talking to more than one person, for one I'm not Russian or dumb, but your mother is a whore.

That's fine as a claim but back it up with something. He backed up the tech transfer claim by literally showing Yakovlev on the design team for X35, if you can't disprove that or show it wasn't on the team to help with VTOL, then quit complaining and admit you don't have anything.

This was a huge part of it. Given Boeing's recent disastrous history, it's probably for the better that the DOD didn't give them the benefit of the doubt.

I know you know what supercruise is. What you're describing has nothing to do with supercruise. Go to hell and take your Lockmart paycheck with you.

>He backed up the tech transfer claim by literally showing Yakovlev on the design team for X35
Not him, but I posted earlier in the thread, which is a Lockheed proposal from the mid-80's with a lift fan like the F-35 has. They certainly didn't need technology transfer.

>Is this generally a correct statement:

What would make it right in the first place?

Again, you can post lift fans and even tilt tails, the fact that Yakovlev had the only flying example of this type of aircraft and was a partner in the design of the X35 suggests that there was at least some technology transfer going from Yakovlev to Lockheed re: the VTOL system.

If they didn't need it why was the partnership a thing? Unless defense contractors randomly partner with enemy companies for small things like landing gear or something, the initial claim here is still correct and supported.

It's staring you in the face, grow a pair and admit it.

The JSF program only came about because Lockheed's work on the ASTOVL program had proven that the Common Affordable Lightweight Fighter could be folded in with minimal impact on the final product. The Lift Fan system made it possible for engineers to effectively design a STOVL variant of a single-engined fighter (as in the F-35) rather than a conventional variant of a STOVL fighter (as in the X-32). In that respect, the program was pretty successful - the F-35 really does have minimal design compromises to accommodate the STOVL F-35B variant, an overall is an excellent aircraft.

The real problems with the JSF program were (as tends to be the case) on the program management side. The general idea is that someone, somewhere got the idea of maturing a bunch of technologies with the F-35 program, spreading the costs of a bunch of advanced technology over several thousand aircraft to keep per-unit cost increases low while developing a bunch of new tech that could be applicable across a wider range of systems. While this sounded great (and is panning out pretty well now that the dust has settled), it was a massive increase in the scope of the program that wasn't properly accounted for in budget and scheduling. As seems to be the case in my experience, Lockheed and the program managers kind of just let the overruns and schedule slips keep going without really raising any concerns until the original IOC date hit and (surprise) the aircraft was nowhere near ready. At that point, a lot of people were rightfully flipping their shit, but fortunately the DoD and Lockheed had managed to turn the program into enough of a White Elephant at that point that they were allowed to keep going under a new budget and schedule. While it was pretty horrific from a program management standpoint, the program went really smoothly since the reorganization and the F-35's panned out really well since finally entering service.

The Yakovlev OKB promptly rendered the necessary assistance to the Lockheed Martin Company in solving many basic design problems on a concept level, associated with the choice of the main parameters of a VTOL fighter as a whole and of its powerplant, as well as operational problems concerned with exhaust gas recirculation and flight control during take-off and landing.

Yak had zero effect on the overall design of the F-35, that being the use of a lift fan, 3-bearing nozzle, and dual control exhaust. Post something that proves otherwise.

So it is you, i should have known. Good luck convincing anyone with your usual attempts of making wrong impressions and then claim you are technically right, when it is obvious that you would never agree to anything similar if someone would pull the same stunt on you.

That makes sense, considering Lockheed bought the Convair Fighter Division when General Dynamics dissolved Convair. The tech in the engine nozzle is Convair, placed into a traditional airframe configuration, rather than the canard/delta configuration on the Model 200. The 200 has more in common with the YAK-141 than the F35, as both used lift jets rather than a single lift fan on the F35. None of the technical similarities are uniquely Russian or American, nor is the fundamental concept. Convair had concept design work done in 1973, and development of the 141 started a few years later. It's convergent development.

Why dont you make it yourself? Since you already made them and all.
