What is max speed of F 35 fighter?

The maximum speed of the F-35 fighter depends on the specific variant.

* F-35A (conventional takeoff and landing): Mach 1.6 (1,200 mph, 1,931 km/h)

* F-35B (short takeoff/vertical landing): Mach 1.6 (1,200 mph, 1,931 km/h)

* F-35C (carrier-based): Mach 1.8 (1,350 mph, 2,173 km/h)
