lmfao it keeps happening
I have been alive for probably longer than most lemmy users and I can not remember even 1/10th of this many stories about any other military aircraft so frequently just doing that than with the F-35.
There’s the German F-104.
Legend says the easiest way to get your own F-104 is to buy a plot of land in West German and wait for one to crashed there.
starting to suspect they have Tim Cook as VP of planned obsolescence
I was reading in 2000 how problematic the F-35 would be. This joke/tragedy has been going on longer than I have been alive.
this many stories
You get whatever the media is focused on. Hundreds of F16s have been lost to non-combat accidents throughout history, yet somehow we have no memory of them.
I’d be interested in learning more if you have details
I didn’t mean it’s like a conspiracy. Military accidents is just something that happens almost every week. For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_accidents_and_incidents_involving_military_aircraft_(2000–2009)
Oh I didn’t take it that way. I just wanted to learn more
J-20 shines again!
praying for the day the resistance can take down american fighter jets at the rate the us military does
