How is it that the connected article, F-35 Joint Strike Fighter says the F135 produces 165kN thrust and this article says the F135 delivers 178kN as well as miraculously managing to bleed air to the roll posts each producing 8.7kN and drive a gearbox which also provides 80kN of thrust. Someones sums don't add up - get it right or leave it out!
- There are a lot of people who assume things they don't even know about.
- My question is, why and how would they even want to begin using the GE/RR engine with 100kN less thrust? According to http://www.pratt-whitney.com/prod_mil_f135.asp and http://www.rolls-royce.com/defence_aerospace/products/combat/f136/tech.jsp something's wrong. The F135 and F136 should have the same thrust. AAK 12:45, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
