Welcome back to Jetline Marvel website in this article we will compare two fighter jets, the F 35 from the United States and the AMCA from India.
This comparison is solely for the purpose of understanding how AMCA appears after completion, from the table drawing to real life. since it hasn’t yet reached final model, but the F 35 is a war-ready plane.
The AMCA differs from the F 35 fighter jet in that it does not have vertical takeoff and landing. But, most importantly, AMCA may begin production and service in 10-15 years.
Lockheed Martin manufactures some of the highest-quality defense goods in the world, and the F 35 is one of them. HAL is a well-known Indian plane manufacturer.
The AMCA is a stealth supersonic multi-role fighter with twin engines built for the IAF. The AMCA is currently envisioned as a fifth-generation fighter, but it will eventually include emerging, best-of-breed sixth-generation technologies. The AMCA would be the Indian Air Force’s first fifth-generation fighter to enter service.
The F-35 is a stealth multirole fighter with a single engine and supersonic speed. Low observables, modern avionics, and sensor fusion are all features of the F-35, allowing for a high level of situational awareness and long-range lethality.

The F-35’s human-machine interface relies heavily on the helmet display. Rather than the preceding fighters’ head-up display positioned atop the dashboard, the HMDS displays flight and battle information on the helmet visor.
Let’s have a look at the aircraft’s size and performance.
- The AMCA is 57.9 feet long, while the F 35 is 51.4 feet long.
- The AMCA has a 36.6-foot wingspan, whereas the F35 has a 35-foot wingspan.
- The AMCA is 14.9 feet tall, while the F 35 is 14.4 feet tall.
- The AMCA has an empty weight of 12,000 kg, whereas the F 35 has a weight of 13,290 kg.
- AMCA has a gross weight of 18,000kg, whereas F 35 has a gross weight of 22,471kg.
- The AMCA has a fuel capacity of 6,500kg, while the F 35 has a capacity of 8,275kg.
- The AMCA is propelled by two modified GE or Safran engines that will be installed in aircraft.
- The F35 is propelled by a single Pratt & Whitney F135 afterburning turbofan with a thrust of 125 kN dry and 191 kN afterburner.
- The AMCA has a top speed of 2633 km/h, whereas the F 35 has a top speed of 2,000 km/h.
- The AMCA has a range of 3,240 kilometres, whereas the F 35 has a range of up to 2,800 kilometres.
- The AMCA has a combat range of up to 1620 kilometres, while the F35 has a range of 1239 kilometres.
