The speed of flight and the tremendous thrust of the 19,500 kg F-35 engine almost knocked out the spectators.

The fifth-generation American F-35 Lightning II fighter jet passes through at extremely low altitude while flying at the Seattle air show. This was reported by The War Zone website.
It is indicated that the F-35 flight was photographed by photographer Andrew King last year, but he published it on social networks only now. The publication learned that Air Force Major Christine “Beo” Wolfe of the 388th Fighter Wing at Hill Air Force Base in Utah was in charge of the fighter.
The video posted by the photographer shows the Beo flying from Boeing Field in Seattle, Washington to the Boeing Seafair airshow.
“My friend brought his truck, we stood here and did not expect such an experience at all. But it was cool! “King said.
From the speed of flight and the very strong thrust of the 19,500 kg engine of the F-35, Andrew and a friend were almost blown away, because the fighter leaves a strong whirlwind behind it.
“Great for airshows, but the extremely long and repetitive vapor trails on the F-35’s wingtips are a known design flaw because they greatly impair visual detection in many conditions,” wrote by the author.
As low and as fast as you can get without blowing out the windows! 🔥

Earlier, the media reported that the United States was deploying a squadron of F-35s to Europe. At the leased base of the US Air Force at Lakenheath, located in British Suffolk, 54 aircraft will soon arrive.
It was also reported that a plant for the production of parts for the F-35 will appear in Germany. Construction has begun in the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia.
