Brief History
The development of the F-35 began in 1996 when Lockheed Martin and Boeing were awarded contracts to build demonstrator aircraft. Lockheed Martin's fighter was deemed superior to the Boeing aircraft, and in 2001, a team led by Lockheed Martin was chosen to build 22 F-35s.Federation of American Scientists: F-35 Joint Strike FighterVariants

The F-35B is a Short Take-Off and Vertical Landing (STOVL) aircraft for the U.S. Marine Corps. The F-35C is a Carrier Variant (CV), first-day-of-war strike fighter for the U.S. Navy.Joint Strike Force: F-35 Background-
