Yes, thats what those fans do - see the pilots sweat when they stop.

I think these are cracking machines and don't know why they are not more popular. Did they ever resolve the mechanical problems? Maybe that's why.

Dale Brown used these extensivly in some of his books. Strange none crashed then.

These machines are just starting to be fielded.

In fact, there's a whole shift in USMC doctrine that is currently in the end phase of field testing that is meant to take advantage of this new airframe's capabilities, as well as other new development in technology.

google up USMC Distributed Operations. There's mucho info on the subject available. Some of the official pubs are on sites that require security whatsits, and my system gives a warning and advised to refuse them, but you can look at the addy to see it's a legit site and accept anyway to view the product.
