Happened Yesterday At Eielsen Air Force Base. According to the article, the pilot was ok but the plane suffered “significant structural damage”…yeah, I’d say so.

That F35 cost taxpayers around $100M!

so essentially the f-35 is a big winged alfa romeo: the best fighter jet in the world, when it works.
