Three operational F-35 versions are planned. The conventional variant (F-35A), designed for the U.S. Air Force, will be built in the largest quantities. The U.S. Navy's carrier variant (F-35C) features larger wing and control surfaces, additional wingtip ailerons, and a strengthened internal structure to absorb the punishment of catapult launches and arrested landings. The wings also fold for bett

Lockheed built fifteen A-12s, including a special two-seat trainer version. Two A-12s were modified to carry a special reconnaissance drone, designated D-21. The modified A-12s were redesignated M-21s. These were designed to take off with the D-21 drone, powered by a Marquart ramjet engine mounted on a pylon between the rudders. The M-21 then hauled the drone aloft and launched it at speeds high e
