Default F-35 Starwars.

APG-81 AESA Radar for the F-35 JSF - YouTube

j4, I saw your post on the stinger missile in the ammo discussion..
They do not want to fire one at this bad boy.. It literally fly's with a radar shield around it.
Anything fired at it, bounces off the shield and is deflected. That is even if they can get a round off. Soon as any bad guy radar locks on the plane, it instantly fires a missile at it.
Would guess they are installing the system in other jets.
Rumor has it, the jet is capable of such G force turns, they had to tone it down so as not to hurt the pilots.
