Only in the movies.I thought those things among others that have been captured could be caused to self-destruct?
Or, it might suggest that they DO understand what they are up against and realize that if something like Link-22 or the Weapon Data Link systems got hacked, EXTREMELY BAD things might start happening. Especially if the links themselves were now "in question". Imagine a certain plane flying over parts of Eastern Europe, deciding to "let a few things fly (or drop)" at the wrong time.This suggests they don't have a clue what they're dealing with.
Then that certainly means there was a hack...Two day stand down for military aviation. Holy shit.
and an act of war if it was indeed a hack...Very odd, very ominous.
TEMUThe plane is now for sale on Chinese eBay...

That was a joke....I hope.So is the plane in Cuba?
Do we know?… or did I read that wrong?
I'm sure the Russians/ Chinese/ NKs/ etc will understand and not do anything stupid that would upset FJB at a time like this when our military is grounded......As Marines continue to search for F-35 after 'mishap,' officials order 2-day stand-down for all jets
After a "mishap" with an F-35 fighter jet in South Carolina on Sunday, the Marine Corps commandant issued a two-day service-wide stand-down for all aviation unitsabcnews.go.com
The Marine Corps acting commandant, Eric Smith, on Monday issued a two-day stand-down to take place at some point this week for all aviation units both inside and outside of the United States, a Marine Corps spokesman told ABC News.
The move was made in the wake of a "mishap" with an F-35 fighter jet in South Carolina on Sunday.
That craft has not yet been located, though the military continues to search.
A Marine Corps spokesperson said in a statement on Sunday that the F-35's pilot "safely ejected from the aircraft. We are currently still gathering more information and assessing the situation. The mishap will be under investigation."
No units are allowed to fly until they have a two-day discussion about safety measures and procedures, the commandant said in a service-wide email on Monday. While the Marine Corps commandant said he has full confidence in the aviation units, he said he felt this was the "right and prudent" thing to do given both this incident and another recent incident in Australia.
So it looks like it's just the USMC that's grounded according to the article.
Riddle me this Batman.
The missing plane was supposed to flying in a two plane formation
Why didn't the other plane just follow the plane that had the premature ejectulation?
No, it wasn’t. I must’ve seen that elsewhere as a speculation.That was a joke....I hope.
This is what I was referring to.We’re working with @MCASBeaufortSC to locate an F-35 that was involved in a mishap this afternoon. The pilot ejected safely. If you have any information that may help our recovery teams locate the F-35, please call the Base Defense Operations Center at 843-963-3600.
Based on the jet’s last-known position and in coordination with the FAA, we are focusing our attention north of JB Charleston, around Lake Moultrie and Lake Marion.

We’re coordinating with @MCASBeaufortSC, the 2nd MAW out of MCAS Cherry Point, @Navy_Region_SE, the FAA, the @CivilAirPatrol, as well as local, county, and state law enforcement across SC. Teams continue to search for the U.S. Marine Corps F-35B, using ground and air assets.

IF our F-35 has in fact landed in Cuba, you can bet that China now has their hands on our technology. This was done on purpose.
They hacked it our pilot was ejected and they landed it where they can access it. I said this when it first happens.

If true, that's a way better outcome.Found! Williamsburg County!
My county!
That’s right near the Williamsburg \ Florence county line. I used to work near there. Stu key has a population of about 100 ppl.
No.Do we know?… or did I read that wrong?
Thank you.No.
Yes.
Well .... I guess after we've poured billions of dollars into developing a stealthy jet, it ought to be harder to find.Local news is saying a debris field been found. But military is not saying exactly where in Williamsburg
LOL Best one I've heard from a buddy is that the onboard AIP unit rejected the illogic from the woke military, ejected the pilot and went into hiding. The debris field could be a decoy.Anybody seen satellite pics of Havanna, Cuba lately? Asking for a friend...
No need. I'm sure BiDen has already supplied the chicoms with all pertinent data.The plane is now for sale on Chinese eBay...
