Cutting-Edge F-35B in All Its Glory - Short Takeoff / Vertical Landing

Video highlights of the F-35B Lightning II featuring aerial demonstrations of the aircraft's landing and takeoff capabilities.
The F-35B is equipped with short takeoff and vertical landing capability(STOVL) that expands its range by allowing it to operate from naval vessels, aviation-capable ships and in austere, expeditionary environments.
Designed for the U.S. Marine Corps, the F-35B variant would do what no other plane had ever done: accelerate past the speed of sound in flight, then make vertical landings on the smallest of landing footprints, much like a helicopter.

HEY!!!! You left the trunk open!!

[@snappycattimesten]

What’s with the pop up thing on normal take off? Wouldn’t that act as a wind break when you want speed for lift?

[@Justin-Ver-Ka]

That's necessary for the VTOL system to function, but yes, it does cause drag. Using VTOL, the F35 was able to take off without the use of a catapult before even getting to the end of the runway

[@Stannington]

One actually managed to land without crashing then?
