First F-35 fighter jet crash:
Mystery fault forces pilot to eject over South Carolina


The stealth fighter jet was used by the United States in combat this week for the first time against Taliban in Afghanistan.

A US military fighter jet sent smoke billowing into the sky after it suffered the first crash in the aircraft’s operational history.

The pilot, who was the only person on board the Lockheed Martin F-35B, was being examined for injuries on Friday after safely ejecting.

The reason for the crash near the Marine Corps Air Station in Beaufort, South Carolina, is said to be under investigation.

The aircraft, a short takeoff and landing version of the F-35, crashed just before 12pm local time.

It was the first crash of an F-35 fighter jet since the aircraft became operational in 2006, according to a military official who wished to remain anonymous.

The incident also marked the first time a pilot had ejected from an F-35B.

The F-35B stealth fighter jet was used by the United States in combat this week for the first time against the Taliban in Afghanistan, after taking off from an amphibious assault ship in the Arabian Sea.

was years ago but around 10, and worked around them a lot.
They can really mess up anyone that has to use them.

Pilots get special wrist watch hat give way so their hands don't get ripped off if they catch on something.
I had a friend about 6ft 2in that lost 2 inches in height after using one... was in hospital about 4 months.
Though if only one plane in 12 years has gone down and over friendly space that's pretty good.
Also the USA air force r known for poor maintenance so 12 years is amazing really Smiley
When we bought second hand F111 off of USA they found whole Toolboxes left in the planes in the body work for example.

This accident its not known if pilot error or Maintenance error or Manufacturer error, until then its just a alarmist piece  Wink

you work for defence then?..
thats interesting....

not many people would have ev er had that experience....

It would not sit well with any country to lose aircraft and possibly pilots in peace time..

I find it hard to believe America wouldnt look after and maintain  its airplanes.... Angry

It’s only a fluff piece anyway, no mention of the cause, so not really a important thread

We lost more that a few f-111s and their pilots in peace time. They were a fantastic aircraft and it was sad to see them go. We have nothing like them anymore and the f-35 will not fill their role.
