The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is a number of single-seat, single-engine, fifth generation multi role fighter aircraft under development to carry out ground attack, reconnaissance, and air defence missions with stealth capability. It has three main models; the F-35A is a conventional take off and landing variant, the F-35B is a short take off and vertical-landing variant, and the F-35C is a carrier-based variant.
The F-35 is descended from the X-35, the archetype of the JSF program. JSF development is mainly being funded by the United States, with the United Kingdom and other partner governments providing extra funds. The partner nations are either NATO or close US allies. It’s being designed and constructed by an aerospace manufacturing team led by Lockheed Martin. The F-35 passed its first flight 2006.
The US plans to purchase 2,443 F-35s to provide the bulk of its air power for the US Air Force, Marines and Navy over the coming decades. 10 other countries, including the UK are part of the development program and could equip their air forces with the F-35.

Lt Tom Lofthouse gained an A-Level in Fine Art whilst studying for his GCSE's. He has subsequently studied Aeronautical Engineering, worked as a systems engineer for a couple of years before becoming a trainee pilot in the Fleet Air Arm.
When he is not flying, he finds sketching a welcome way of relaxing and an opportunity to re-ignite a childhood passion. He predominantly sketches Aircraft due to having such a close association with them but has a wide portfolio of Military sketches. Each sketch is available as a print sized 210mm x 300mm and signed by Lt Tom Lofthouse. Originals are available on request.
