The Insane Engineering of The World's Most Deadly Fighter Jet: The F-35 Lightning II
The F-35 was designed from the ground up with stealth in mind. Its manufacturers aligned its edges, serrated its skin panels, and masked the engine with easy-to-maintain fibermat skin for low observability. They also reduced infrared and visual signatures, enabled the reflection of radar waves, and used strict controls of radio frequency emitters - all playing their role in preventing aircraft detection and contributing to the F-35’s ultra-tiny radar cross-section that’s lower than that of a metal golf ball.
