INTRODUCTION
The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is a family of single-seat, single-engine, all-weather stealth multirole fighters. The fifth-generation combat aircraft is designed to perform ground-attack and air-superiority missions. Compared to the F-35A, the F-35C carrier variant features larger wings with foldable wingtip sections, larger wing and tail control surfaces for improved low-speed control, stronger landing gear for the stresses of carrier arrested landings, a twin-wheel nose gear, and a stronger tailhook for use with carrier arrestor cables. The larger wing area allows for decreased landing speed while increasing both range and payload.

@Hux,
Thank you for your words!
Actually, I never tested Autolanding, LOL and no-one ever complained about this before.
Unfortunately I don't have the time to keep supporting this mod anymore.

Yeah sorry, I realized that after I posted. Really nice plane though. It flies smooth and has a nice loadout. I did try autolanding on the Freedom but it doesn't catch the cables. I tried manual landing and that worked fine. Very nce mod. My hat's off to you.

@Hux,
Like it was already replied (and several times so) in the past, this mod models the F-35C which is the carrier based version of the F-35 which doesn't have "vertical take off". The F-35 variant that has "vertical take off" is the F-35B which isn't modeled in this mod.

@мιcнαεℓ scσғιεℓ∂,
This mod is no longer supported but I gave it a try and I don't know what's happening in your end but I tried just like you did by placing a F-35C in Eden editor, fly for a bit then returned to Eden, added a few more objects and played again and so on without any problems. I suspect you might have another mod installed that's resulting in your problem. Try loading the F-35C mod only and see if you still have the problem?

Is there no vertical take off with this plane? I can't find any way to move the engine nozzle.
I don't know why, but this mod is making my game freeze on second time load. When I play F-35 in scene using eden editor and jump into play scenario, then I return back to eden editor for changing objects or etc it won't load it keeps loading.

Any chance of a f35b? All of the current ones are extremely poor quality, especially compared to this

Any plans to add functional aerial refueling?
It's currently not compatible with any tanker platform as it's missing the "refuel_probe" in the config that the fuel drogue is supposed to attach to.

Can you make the targets on the screen (I mean the big green triangle) smaller? When I was doing the carrier landing, the target notation of the planes on the deck blocked my sight and I cannot see the runway. I think the F-181 is better in this aspect, the targets are in green dots.
Hornet  [author] Jan 12 @ 9:17am 
No, there is no way to disable the automatic flaps. And why would you want to do that since the flaps in the real F-35 are fully automatic?
