f 35 first combat mission

Does the F-35 have combat experience?
The F-35 made by Lockheed Martin is America's newest fifth-generation jet — built for ground attacks and air-to-air combat, and it has already seen some combat experience in the Middle East.
In recent Red Flag aerial wargames run by the U.S.
Air Force, the F-35 racked up a 20:1 kill ratio.
In scenarios where the F-35 acted as a stealthy, passive sensor passing information along to non-stealthy aircraft, it improved their scores as well.

Has the F-35 flown in combat?

Although the F-35 has been in service for only about six years, it has already been used in at least six combat operations._{8 sept. 2022}

Is the F-35 ready for combat?

Only about half of the Pentagon's fleet of F-35 fighter jets are considered mission-capable, well below the target of 65% and a state of readiness the program manager terms “unacceptable.”

The aircraft was first used in combat in 2018 by the Israeli Air Force.
