To me, the most impressive stat in the chart about this motor is the Turbine Inlet Temperature as it is approaching 4,000 F!
ICBW but somethin' tells me that's a max FTIT, or the point were the motor starts to ooze outta the engine bay . I don't think it'll run that hot under normal ops. But....what do i know.

One F-135 takes up less room and generates more thrust than two rival engines combined and completely outclasses the other two
How does it take up less room when its longer and has more than twice the cross sectional area?

There's a looong way between the quoted 3600F and 4000F in terms of turbine technology, and even more so if you use standard fuel.
