Correct Answer
C. July 31, 2015
Explanation
In July 31, 2015, the US Marines declared the F-35B fighter jet for deployment. This means that on this date, the US Marines officially announced that they would be using the F-35B fighter jet in their operations.
3.
How many units of F-35I was built in June 2018?
Correct Answer
D. 300 units
Explanation
In June 2018, 300 units of F-35I were built.
4.
Efforts at building the F-35I started in the year ...........?
Correct Answer
C. 1992
Explanation
The correct answer is 1992. This suggests that efforts at building the F-35I began in 1992.
5.
What is the major Funding source for the building of F-35I came from?
Correct Answer
D. The Pentagon
Explanation
The major funding source for the building of F-35I came from The Pentagon. The Pentagon is the headquarters of the United States Department of Defense and is responsible for the funding and procurement of military equipment and technology. As the F-35I is a military aircraft, it is logical that the funding for its construction would come from The Pentagon, which oversees the development and acquisition of weapons systems for the United States Armed Forces.
6.
How many internal weapon bays has the F-35?
Correct Answer
A. Four internal baysÂ
Explanation
The F-35 has four internal weapon bays. These internal bays are designed to carry a variety of weapons, including air-to-air missiles, air-to-ground missiles, and guided bombs. The use of internal bays allows the F-35 to maintain its stealth capabilities by keeping its weapons hidden from radar detection. Having four internal bays provides the F-35 with a significant amount of firepower and versatility in combat situations.
7.
The following features are present in the F-35I except
Correct Answer
A. Distant signature reduction measures
Explanation
The F-35I, also known as the Israeli variant of the F-35 fighter jet, possesses several features that contribute to its stealth capabilities. These include low radar cross-section, visual signature reduction measures, and infrared signature reduction measures. However, "distant signature reduction measures" are not mentioned as one of the features present in the F-35I. This suggests that the aircraft does not have specific measures to reduce its signature at longer distances, implying that it may be more detectable from afar compared to its other stealth features.
8.
How can low frequency radars detect the F-35I?
Correct Answer
D. Rayleigh scattering due to F-35I pHysical size
Explanation
Low frequency radars can detect the F-35I due to Rayleigh scattering caused by the physical size of the aircraft. Rayleigh scattering occurs when the size of the object being detected is comparable to the wavelength of the radar signal. In this case, the F-35I's physical size is such that it causes a significant scattering of the radar signal, making it detectable by low frequency radars.
9.
All the following statements are true about F-35I except?
Correct Answer
D. Most of its software is written in Ruby and C++
Explanation
The F-35I is a fighter aircraft that is known for its advanced features. It has a full-panel-width glass cockpit touchscreen, which enhances the pilot's ability to control the aircraft. It also has more than six infrared sensors, which help in detecting and tracking targets. However, the statement that most of its software is written in Ruby and C++ is incorrect. The F-35I's software is not predominantly written in Ruby and C++.
10.
The first accident involving the F-35 aircraft was on _______
Correct Answer
D. June 23, 2014
