Missing F-35 Jet Crashed in South Carolina. Allegedly.

GP:
As TGP’s Kristinn Taylor reported, the Air Force asked the public for help finding a lost Marine Corps F-35 jet that was last seen over South Carolina Sunday afternoon after the pilot safely ejected. The pilot parachuted into a residential neighborhood where he landed in a backyard and was taken to the hospital in stable condition.

The U.S. Marine Corps has issued a two-day stand-down order for all aviation units after an F-35 went missing after a “mishap”.

A debris field was found in Williamsburg County, South Carolina on Monday. more

  1. “Mishap” = he/she chipped his/her newly manicured nails and panicked, pulling the eject lever.
    For 80 million dollars, why don’t these things have drone-like capabilities that would allow it to be returned home by some guy sitting at a control station back at the base?

  2. The COMCHINKS already have that technology…it was a JSF (Joint Strike Fighter) that us built with the cooperation of other countries! So it’s not a secret, nor has it ever been one!
