Good to know the F-35 can do this. I wonder if this is a capability the RCAF will develop when they receive thier aircraft.

In a world first, two Royal Norwegian Air Force F-35A fighter jets landed and took off from a public highway in Finland as part of a NATO exercise. This was done to demonstrate the ability to operate the F-35 from dispersed and austere locations, increasing survivability in conflict. While the F-35A is not capable of vertical take-off and landing like the F-35B, the exercise showed it can still operate from roads and highways, expanding the aircraft's basing options. #military #defense #defence #aerospace #aviation #aircraft #aircrafts #airplane #airplanes #aviationlovers #militaryaviation #militaryaircraft #fighterjet #engineering #technology #militarytechnology #defensetechnology #defenseinnovation #defenseindustry #airforce
