does anyone else think that the F35B is a horrible design ? lugging around that lift engine and all it's extra structure must compromise performance.

brings to mind the Russian "Harrier", Yak-38, .... which of course was no Harrier.

maybe we managed to convince the Russians to spend money on the Yak-141 ?

Someone I worked with described the F35 as 3 different airframes running the same software.
