@Raveni - kiitos linkeistä. Mielenkiintoisia lähteitä ja lukemista.
Kyllä silti vähän ihmetyttää. Vaatiiko se oikeasti noin valtavasti kiitorataa. Nousuun, laskuun vai marginaaleihin?
Tuossa esim. Hornetin vastaavat:

Min landing/takeoff roll is determined by many factors. For takeoff, we consult our performance manual to go through the charts etc taking into account runway condition (wet or not) temperature, density altitude, gross weight and type of takeoff (afterburner or mil power). Typically the takeoff distance with a standard load ( one centerline fuel tank) here in Lemoore is 2600 feet, a little more when hot and less when cold. This being said, if we max perform the jet we can get in the air in around 1500 feet Obviously on a carrier we get airborne within 250 feet or so.
Hornet ilmeisesti nousee tarvittaessa ilmaan alle 450m matkalta.
For landing we can stop when light on fuel and stores within around 2700 feet however the "required" ( by our higher ranking officers) distance is 7000 feet waiverable by the boss to 6000. good to know that we can stop in under 3000 feet though in a dire situation. For landing on the boat we stop in 200 feet or so with the aid of a hook and arresting wire.
Ohjeistus laskuun runsas pari kilometria, mutta "renkaat lukossa" jarruttaen riittää kilometri.
Lusin pituus esim. on n. 3 km Kyllä se F-35 siihen pysähtyisi.

P.S. Lusi on muuten pitkä. Helsinki-Vantaa ovat 3-3,4 pitkiä.
