I was referencing an 80's Pepsi commercial sweepstakes that implied tongue in cheek that one prize was your very own STOL fighter jet. I believe there was a lawsuit over the sweepstakes since it want a real prize.
It’s the Marines version, it has vertical take off and hover capability. Slower than the other f35’s it literally has a fan system behind the cockpit, doors open and voosh it’s hovering eating fuel like Rosie O’Donnell at Golden Corral. I bet maintenance is a nightmare trying to keep it deployable.
Wasn't that supposed to be a harrier jump jet.
F-35 has limited hover ability. It's STOL aircraft.

Oh I finally got the reference! I read about it a long time ago! Thank you.
