United States has a stronghold over stealth aircrafts. But the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) gets it to an entirely new level. This project started as a $200 Billion competition between Lockheed Martin and Boeing, which LM eventually won. The result is a powerhouse which has the capability of carrying 2000 pounds of explosives, and 15000 pounds of the same if stealth functionality is not required! Capable of nailing down an enemy 155 miles down the lane, it probably couldn't have got much better.

Survivability, a cornerstone of F-35 design, is enhanced foremost by the aircraft’s radar-evading properties. Stealth capability, available for the first time in a multirole fighter, will minimize the threat to the pilot during operations in heavily defended areas. The aircraft also is configured with advanced countermeasures to reduce the effectiveness of enemy defenses.
I was in awe while I saw this on the channel. Various technicalites, and I do recommend the following video that I found later. Step aside.. here's the king..
