Two F-35s of United States Air Force and United States Navy while aerial refueling from tanker aircraft, KC-130 Hercules somewhere over ocean. The picture shown the terrific flight capability during refueling process, that could be done simultaneously. The USAF jet fighter flew on the left side of KC-130 has conventional paint motive, while the Navy has stunning blue-yellow paint on its vertical stabilizer.
Apparently, those are the F-35C variant, C stands for carrier. This jet fighter aircraft, specially manufactured by Lockheed Martin to be used on ocean or carrier flight missions. F-35C has larger wings compared to original F-35A, the conventional variant, as well as foldable wings technology in order to save space on carrier.
To support its landing and takeoff attempt, Lockheed Martin installed much more stronger landing gear systems. So the catapult and hooked during takeoff and landing will not be a problem to F-35C. This F-35C also equipped with largest internal fuel capacity, up to 9,000 kg.
