History:
The Lockheed Martin F-35A Lightning II is a fifth-generation multirole stealth fighter developed under the Joint Strike Fighter program. Designed to replace older fighters such as the F-16 Fighting Falcon, the F-35A brings together stealth technology, advanced avionics, and sensor fusion capabilities. First flown in 2006, the aircraft entered USAF service in 2016 and has since become central to the air combat doctrine of the United States and allied nations. Its versatility allows it to perform air superiority, strike, reconnaissance, and electronic warfare missions. The F-35A continues to expand globally, with numerous NATO and allied air forces adopting it as the backbone of their modern air fleets.
