Some of the fifth generation jets include the F35A, F35B, F15 and Sikhou russian jet.The developer of the F35 planes is the Lockheed Martin company.The company won tender for production of F fighters against their rivals Boeing, in 2004 when both firms designed an aircraft to display at a competition organised by NSA.

Features

F35's are the fastest aircrafts in the present times.Lockheed Martin increased their speeds from previous F15 by 2sec, 12sec and a whooping 43sec for the F35A, F35B, F35C warplanes respectively.

The aircraft offers lightning speeds especially, when evading both surface to air and air to air missiles.This is because of the high thrust released by the engines enabling supersonic speeds.

The warplane is also not as highly manouverable to evade missiles as its predecessors.Its turning abillity was reduced from 5g to 4.5g as compared to the F15plane .Although, this might be seen as not beneficial, it will compensated by high speeds if the plane was within visible range in an air to air attack.Pilots will also require skills in using the sensors available.

Stealth capabilities were revised from '' low '' to '' very low'' capability. This enables the aircraft to remain invisible while spying on enemy military bases by escaping radar.

Other intriguing features consists of vertical landing and take off control system and twin missiles one on each side weighing about 2000 pounds each.

Advantages

Has a combination of both a bomber and a fighter and is also referred
to as the Joint Fighter Jet.

Limitations

Has only a single engine instead of the recommended double. Other countries who are to purchase the airplane have complained about this. In case of an engine failure what would the pilots use?Here is what the CEO had to say, '' that wont happen ''.

As stated, turning ability is less than its predecessors and fourth generation jets.

Overal performance

Generally, the F35C is viewed the best in its generations.'' in terms of the overal performance, the lockheed is the best in its generation.'' says the CEO.

It is definitely a great fighter craft in its gen.

Air powered cars have once been my idea when I worked on a balloon powered car project.I presented it on science congress contest upto the District level.It was not a welcoming idea since my concept was not well developed.It only featured a ballon for propulsion. The lego air powered car invention is definitely a breakthrough for a group funded project.It is said to be built with 500,000 legos except for the tyres.The inventor claims that he was neither a technology nor a lego enthusiast!!!

Bike or car? Project 2 and 4

I was thinking about bike cars and a documentary about them from dw tv which highlighted the revolutionary bike cars. They are aimed at reducing emissions and single transit of an individual to shorter distances. I was surprised to come around the news about bike cars. In particular a racing Ferrari-like car that is both bike and a car. The Project 2&4 concept. It is also the winner of  Honda design competition involving engineers and designers from both motorcycle and automotive studios. The concept is powered by a 999cc v4 engine. It has an rpm of 14000 ( revolution per minute: a measure of the frequency of rotation which is the number of rotations around a fixed axis per minute  and is a measurement of rotational speed of a mechanical component) which when calculated with torque(how strong an automobile is) calculates to around 211bph (break horsepower :how fast work can be done using the power).The clutch is a 6 speed dual transmission.
