F-35C – Bringing 5th Generation Capability to the Carrier Enhanced Asymmetric Advantage The F-35C matches 5th generaon survivability with major advances in network-enabled mission systems, reliability and interoperability. It is a first-day-of-the-war fighter with the capability to dominate adversaries in the air or on the surface, while surviving the most formidable threat environments. Reduced Operation and Support Costs The F-35C Lightning II redefines fighter support, starng with unprecedented reliability and durability requirements. Simplicity and ease of maintenance have been designed into the aircraſt, and the need for support equipment is reduced. Logiscs are streamlined and automated, and the F-35C is able to accomplish its missions with less support than required by legacy fighters. Redefining the Multirole Fighter The 5th generaon F-35 Lightning II integrates advanced stealth technology into a highly agile, supersonic aircraſt that provides the pilot with unprecedented situaonal awareness and unmatched lethality and survivability. As new threats emerge, it is more important than ever for U.S. and allied fighter fleets to fly the F-35 stealth fighter, the world’s only 5th generaon internaonal aircraſt. While each aircraſt is uniquely designed to operate from different environments, all three variants set new standards in network-enabled mission systems, sensor fusion and supportability. The F-35 redefines the mulrole fighter. The World’s Only 5th Generation Carrier Aircraft For the first me in U.S. naval aviaon history, radar-evading stealth capability comes to the carrier deck. The F-35C Carrier Variant sets new standards in weapon system integraon, lethality, maintainability, combat radius and payload that bring true mulmission power projecon capability from the sea. Ruggedized Stealth Together, Lockheed Marn, Northrop Grumman and BAE Systems bring a wealth of marime aircraſt heritage and extensive experience fielding stealth aircraſt. The F-35C combines lessons learned from previous aircraſt with technology breakthroughs to produce a fighter that retains its stealthy advantage with minimal low observable maintenance, even in the harshest shipboard condions.

F-35C – Bringing 5th Generation Capability to the Carrier
Enhanced Asymmetric AdvantageThe F-35C matches 5th generation survivability with major advances in network-enabled mission systems, reliability and interoperability. It is a first-day-of-the-war fighter with the capability to dominate adversaries in the air or on the surface, while surviving the most formidable threat environments.
Reduced Operation and Support CostsThe F-35C Lightning II redefines fighter support, starting with unprecedented reliability and durability requirements. Simplicity and ease of maintenance have been designed into the aircraft, and the need for support equipment is reduced. Logistics are streamlined and automated, and the F-35C is able to accomplish its missions with less support than required by legacy fighters.
Redefining the Multirole FighterThe 5th generation F-35 Lightning II integrates advanced stealth technology into a highly agile, supersonic aircraft that provides the pilot with unprecedented situational awareness and unmatched lethality and survivability. As new threats emerge, it is more important than ever for U.S. and allied fighter fleets to fly the F-35 stealth fighter, the world’s only 5th generation international aircraft. While each aircraft is uniquely designed to operate from different environments, all three variants set new standards in network-enabled mission systems, sensor fusion and supportability. The F-35 redefines the multirole fighter.
The World’s Only 5th Generation Carrier AircraftFor the first time in U.S. naval aviation history, radar-evading stealth capability comes to the carrier deck. The F-35C Carrier Variant sets new standards in weapon system integration, lethality, maintainability, combat radius and payload that bring true multimission power projection capability from the sea.
Ruggedized Stealth Together, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and BAE Systems bring a wealth of maritime aircraft heritage and extensive experience fielding stealth aircraft. The F-35C combines lessons learned from previous aircraft with technology breakthroughs to produce a fighter that retains its stealthy advantage with minimal low observable maintenance, even in the harshest shipboard conditions.
