¿Laundry fire?
Lis F35 q son rebuenis se están cayendo solos no pis q buen verdad
There goes another $110 million dollars.. Glad the pilot is safe.
It’s too bad the pilot survived those prick holes were flying in circles over people’s businesses even after complaints
I bet Iran is claiming responsibility
Would not be surprised if Iran claims that they shot it down.
Cat A mishap probably means the Jet is totaled.
piece of crap jet.
STOL Stealth costly hunk of junk.
where is Justin Austil local news are not about local info (no knowledge of the E/W approach not a AirForce base Fire History cedar fireEtc) THANK GOD FIGHTER SURVIVIED
Yes its a Raptor
Don’t worry, it’s to boost the fighter‘s moral 😂
Keep crashing it!
Dei again and again and again 🤮👎
What a waste of my tax 🫡
I blame Trump, more military aircraft losses in this term then any other president…just sayin
There goes few million dollars up in smoke
Another 100 million dollars down the military/industrial complex drain!
All because American politics continues to hype the "commie threat"……….
Fortunately no fatality. Probably pilot hotdogging and lost control. Hegseth will call him a patriot and give him a medal.
That's Taxes going up again😂😂😂😂😂
Mishap? Only between $82 to $110 million for an f35 fighter jet. How many people could you feed? Imagine that!
The movie snake eyes was about F-35 fighter plan
I don't know if I'd call the crash of a $109 million fighter jet a "mishap".
Just a " mishap " nothing to see here
More tax dollars to pay the pilot not to fly again. Waste!
In the first 10 years of Harrier service, they lost 100 airframes with 20 pilot fatalities.
First 10 years of F/A-18 service, 97 airframes with 27 fatalities.
F-35B first flew in Dec 2008. Initial Operational Capability in 2016.
6 airframe losses, 0 fatalities.
The F-35B even by itself is safer to fly and operate than any other jet fighters in the world, except for the F-35A and C models.
"Was it a mid-air stall?" Is there any other kind? It's kind of hard to stall a wing (if that was what he was taking about) while on the ground.
Thank God the pilot is okay🙏
