The F-35 is going to be loud, the 3dB difference in noise levels is equal to a doubling of the noise level. Remember the decibel scale is logarithmic so a doubling of the intensity a sound or noise always causes an increase of approximately 3 dB.
Well, thats hardly surprising. Noise is largely a factor of the amount of thrust being made and the nozzle area that thrust is exiting from. The F-35 has probably one of the highest if not the highest thrust to nozzle area ratios.
Basically, it comes down to thrust being made by pressure and volume of exhaust products. Nozzle area determines the velocity of the jet plume and mixing front between atmospheric pressure air and the pressurized discharge. 43,000 lbs is a lot of thrust -- it is roughly what propels an Airbus A320 or a newer Boeing 737 at take off from those two CFM56 engines. The exhaust area on the F135 engine is a heck of a lot smaller than that of those two high bypass turbofans combined probably something on the order of 1/5~1/6th the size. |

I wounder what would happen if an F-35 flying at only 50 feet above the ground in full AB will do to a persons ears if it goes right past you. Would you go deaf? I know they would piss themselves thats for sure.  |

What... you have to ask louder as most of us have had it happen once or twice allready, with current jets  |

THE RINGING WILL GO AWAY AFTER A FEW HOURS....
Remember duration of exposure is just as critical as the db of the noise.
Even up close to the Viper (or uninstalled engine) with double hearing protection (plugs & muffs) you're only allowed to be exposed to MAX power for 5 minutes per 8 hour day. |

The F-35 is definately louder than a F-16 or F-18. It probably isnt louder than a F-15, but I know when they tested the flightline runstations for F-35 ops, they brought in a F-15 to duplicate the noise levels. And its got the coolest howling noise when the pilot first goes to MIL power. Its sweet.
Was it the F-35 that made the howling noise? I would be sort of surprised if [Link pending approval] Does the F-22 make a similar noise? I thought it was only the P&W F-100 that made that noise.

| I know I've got hearing damage from all the time I spent out on the perimeter fence watching aircraft in the pattern. I was ~100ft from a gaggle of T-37's on a regular basis, so I think that's where it came from. |
