Enjoy!

| Thought I'd put up a new and improved version of this. Contrast was enhanced, color saturated just a bit, then sharped. Much improved, IMHO. |

If I may reword Vicious' post...
Cool pic of the F135-PW-600 pushing the F-35B transonic with an impressive augmentor plume and giving off a bit of vapor in the process.

| This is the nostalgic Cold War "taken with a telephoto lens from an open car window" look. |

| In this situation (AB and vapor trail) is the F35 still stealthy? Does the vapor increase the plane's radar signature? I assume the leading edges of the plane are heating up too. |

I think it was more that picture has so much potential but the original was crap. I'd have loved to have seen what this thing looked like from above as well. It looks like it was probably covered with vapor.  |
