主题：F135到底抹了什么神油？ -- 晨枫

Larger fan (Higher flow and pressure)

Larger dual stage low pressure turbine to drive the larger fan, and LiftFan when equipped)

Advanced prognostics (fancy computers that monitor performance based on predicted and modeled goals)

Newer Externals

Most of it is 'based on' the F119; but it won't be the 'same'. The core is 'based on the F119' but will incorporate improvements learned over the F119's operational history. The F135 is also suppose to have a reduced part count; lower than the F119, which is much lower than the F100 or F110.

Even the Fan and low pressure turbine are 'based' on the F119; improved and enlarged.

I'll pop over to visit our friend J@ne and see the technical explanation of the above changes.

And yes, the F119 is 'rated' in the "35K class" which may or may not be accurate depending on how you look at it....

The F135's 43K figure has been stated by the F-35 office, PW, and the DoD. It too is in the '40K class' (So take the classes or actual as you will.)
