The F-35 is a bit ... how to say this politely... porky. An enormous high-output afterburning turbofan engine, plenty of internal fuel, advanced systems and stealth combine to make the F-35 unlikely to be named a beauty queen.

Anyway, I do not know the origin of the new moniker, but I think it fits: The F-35C Battle Penguin!
