This Picture Of A Bombed-Up And Dirty F-35C Is The Best Joint-Strike Fighter Photo Yet



Gear down, flaps out, all bombed, missiled and gunned-up, in a steep bank and in burner—this has to be the best photo of an F-35 yet. Additionally, the navalized F-35C, shown here, with its larger wing, has to be the most photogenic out of the Joint Strike Fighter family. When you add in pair of AIM-9Xs, a quartet of GBU-12s, a center-line 25m gun pod and some nice light, it just screams “futuristic war wagon” from this angle.

INTERNATIONAL MILITARY REVIEW – SYRIA, DEC. 18, 2015



Syrian Arab Army and Hezbollah conduct an encirclement operation on the north of Latakia Governorate against Turkestan Islamic Party and al-Nusra Front forces. Encircling of the enemy forces is executed simultaneously with the raining down destruction of the encircled groups by Syrian and Russian aviation.

On Thursday evening the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) supported by the National Defense Forces (NDF) captured Jabal Al-Sayyid. This already forced the militants to withdraw towards the northern mountainside of Jabal Al-Turkmen. This morning clashes were observed in Jabal Al-Turkmen, Jabal Al-Akrad and Jabal Al-Zahiyah where the pro-government forces are continuing offensive actions.

SouthFront: Analysis&Intelligence supposes that the task of the final operational encirclement on the north of Latakia Governorate will be accomplished by Syrian governmental forces within 6-7 days.

The SAA and its allies advanced on the terrorists’ positions in the city of Aleppo on Thursday. The loyalists’ forces destroyed terrorists in the neighborhoods of al-Lairamoun, al-Firdous and Bani Zaid. Also clashes were observed in the districts of al-Maasaraniyeh, al-Sheikh Lutfi and Bustan al-Basha.

Separately, the SAA has destroyed the ISIS strongholds and fortifications in the villages of Najjara and al-Jaberiyeh in the Eastern part of Aleppo province. 10 militants were killed in the attacks. Militants’ weapons and machine gun-equipped vehicles were also destroyed.

Twelve US F-15 fighter jets deployed temporarily in Turkey’s Incirlik air base last month returned to their Lakenheath airbase in the UK on Wednesday. The US European Command (EUCOM) said that the temporary deployment strengthened interoperability of the US and Turkish air forces in defending Turkish airspace and conducting alleged operations against ISIS. The EUCOM stated that the end of F-15 deployments does not indicate a reduction in operations against ISIS. However, it is a remarkable move amid the cooling of the US-Turkish relations.

Turkish soldiers watch as the Syrian Army captures 5 points along the border with northern Latakia



The Syrian Arab Army’s 103rd Brigade of the Republican Guard has effectively spread the Islamist rebels of Jabhat Al-Nusra (Syrian Al-Qaeda group) and the Free Syrian Army (FSA) too thin after launching their massive offensive at three different axes in the Latakia Governorate’s northern countryside.

On Friday and Saturday, the Syrian Arab Army’s 103rd Brigade of the Republican Guard – in coordination with the National Defense Forces (NDF) of Latakia City, the Syrian Social Nationalist Party (SSNP), and Muqawama Souri (Syrian Resistance) – imposed full control over 5 points along the vast Turkish-Latakia border after a long battle with Jabhat Al-Nusra and the Free Syrian Army.


According to a battlefield journalist with the Syrian Arab Army’s 103rd Brigade, the Syrian Armed Forces captured Points 427, 626.8, 687.5, 526, and 652 in the Turkmen Mountains (Jabal Al-Turkmen) of northern Latakia, further expanding the pro-government forces’ control over the Turkish border with this coastal province.

Currently, intense firefights between the Syrian Armed Forces and Jabhat Al-Nusra are ongoing at the Al-Nuba Mountains inside the southern rim of the Turkmen Mountain chain.

Jabhat Al-Nusra has used the poor weather in the Latakia Governorate to their advantage, as they have launched several attacks on the Syrian Arab Army’s defensive positions, while both the Russian and Syrian Air Forces were forced to standby due to the volatile conditions.

Their new aircraft? Pilot error maybe?

Yes engine sound dead before spiral plunge.

There were residential area near the crash site. Maybe they were trying to avoid that area. Still speculative though. Investigation is underway.

Yes T50i No.7. Investigation is ongoing to determine the cause of this fatal accident.

Anyway the pilots that were killed from today fatal accident are Lt.Col Marda "Lanner" Sardjono (15th Squadron Commander) & Capt Dwi "Ostrich" Cahyadi.

RIP.

Every new aircraft will have this kind of problems. Doesn't mean it sucks, though those with an agenda will try to use it to promote their cause.

Accidents could always happen to any aircrafts & helicopters regardless who the makers are.

A brand new Airbus A400M for Turkey crashed while on a test flight killing all it's Airbus crew. That doesn't mean the Europeans are unreliable.

Even a PAK-FA caught fire that doesn't mean the Russian are unreliable.

In just one month 2 US Army Apache crashed killing 2 of it's crew that doesn't mean the Americans are unreliable.

The KAI & Lockheed T50 is in the competition for the USAF T-X program to replace the T-38 Talon.
