    I think we need to give the engineers who designed and built the F-35 the benefit of the doubt in this case. It’s entirely possible that the Marine pilot was distracted by malnourishment from a lack of crayons and glue that day.

    I wonder if the MIC will call it a pilot error even if it wasn’t. Or is there such a thing as an ultra-mini insta-tornado?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_Martin_F-35_Lightning_II#Accidents_and_notable_incidents

    People were saying in 2000 that the F-35 was a bad engineering idea. When will the West admit defeat and say goodbye to the 4 trillion that’s been spent on this thing?

      We could have had a roubust space mining and logistics industry with that money. Be on our way to evolve as a species and make a huge dent in scarcity. Instead we decided to revamp the cold war and blow it all up to stay on oil.
