Awesome F-35B Video Shows US Marines Already Have Transformers

While we have take care glimpses of how the F-35B - the unretentive take - off vertical landing form of theF-35 Lightning II - works , here ’s an surprisingly detailed video showing its transforming capabilities in flight , which was posted anonymously in YouTube last week . According to Flight Global , this sophisticated warfare machine - which is now in its testing phase - won’t see real action any time before long , as its engine is getting redesigned turbine blades . Update : one of the author of the - plainly antecedently classified - video send us more detailed selective information about what this really is . The video was done two years ago for Northrop Grumman . Our reader was one of the three the great unwashed who did it and he ’s quite surprised to find it online , since it is under NDA .

The one depicted is the X-35 [ the image that won the contract for the Joint Strike Fighter and became the F-35 ] . I do n’t know who posted it on YouTube , but the level of NDA ’s was substantial where we were not even allowed to showcase it on our demo reel .

My guess is that , since the cat has been out of the bag for a farseeing time , the NDA is no longer applicable . [ Flight Global ]
