The F-35 Lightning II shown in the film uses its VTOL engine to hover and shoot at its target. The VTOL (Vertical Take Off and Landing) engine is purely for that; taking off and landing. Hovering takes an incredible amount of fuel, and can overheat the hover engine since its duty cycle is not 100%. Additionally, the difficulty in making the craft successfully hover would make it virtually impossible to also track and fire on a target. As such, pilots are never, ever trained in or participate in hovering attacks.
