F-35: Designed for Everything, But Did That Make It Weaker?

The F-35 Lightning II was designed to be the most advanced multirole stealth fighter ever built — capable of air superiority, ground attack, intelligence gathering, and electronic warfare, all in one aircraft. But that ambitious goal raises a critical question: did designing the F-35 to do everything make it weaker?

In this in-depth analysis, RS MILITARY breaks down the real strengths and compromises of the F-35 program. We examine why the United States and its allies invested trillions into a single platform, how stealth and sensor fusion reshaped modern air combat, and whether multirole versatility came at the cost of specialization.

This video explores:
• The original Joint Strike Fighter concept
• Why the F-35 replaced multiple legacy aircraft
• Stealth vs maneuverability trade-offs
• Close air support and air-to-air performance debates
• Maintenance, cost, and operational challenges
• How the F-35 actually fits into modern network-centric warfare

Rather than hype or hate, this video delivers fact-driven military analysis explaining why the F-35 is both controversial and revolutionary. Is it truly a “jack of all trades, master of none,” or is it simply misunderstood in a new era of sensor-dominated warfare?

As air defenses grow stronger and future wars become more data-driven, understanding platforms like the F-35 is critical to understanding how conflicts will be fought — and won.
