[Mrc]

Pilot ejects from F-35B near White Settlement, Texas​

This is 3rd crash in a week .

If China ever released such footage, dont forget chinese media censorship

You should really learn before talking, air crashes also happen in China, just not as often as F-35 does.

When come to Chinese plane. slayer will not say in the same manner,. More like face saving comment from you for American poor QC.

Jet crashes often is not acceptable. Its troll of you trying to tell others it normal. 3-4 crashes a year is pathetic record.

This is the Quality Control process.

This fighter probably is at the final stage of hand over test, before handing it to the Marine. They put it thru stress on a controlled environment to see if there are any issue, most likely there are issue found in this. Notice the airframe is not really that damaged and it most likely a gear problem. Just because pilot ejected does not mean it is a hull loss. RAAF did the same thing to a Super Hornet a few months back

I doubt PLAAF only have 11 crashes in their history. That's how many F-35 crashed.

PLAAF has many type of planes, altogether and combined, they must have more crashes than F-35, I agree.

F-35 is a lemon. No doubt. Too many crashes happened recently. American QC are very bad.

October, there is another crashed.

Yeah...Right...You who can barely tell the difference between a hammer and a screwdriver...

In my opinion...This looked like pilot error.

The jet was stationary in the air, then it began descending and the descent looked normal. But the jet essentially bounced after the initial touchdown. So it might be a throttle control issue.

Nice excuse for your lemon. Almost every month there is a crash. Then troll will claim this it normal. No wonder American think B737 max crashed that killed hundred of people are also normal.

 

[beijingwalker]

Never seen any other planes enjoy such a high crash rate.

This is definitely NOT a pilot error. Any qualified pilot wouldve reacted in time. Pilot tried to keep the bird up but engine failed to produce enough thrust or maybe some other technical issue.

Oh they happen alright, they are covered too. But i dont doubt that Chinese government censors a lotta stuff here and there

We got countries that never contributed to aviation wanking off at our mishaps. No wonder we do not take you guys seriously. With the Harrier, F-35B, V-22, and the coming V-280, we got pilots flying platforms that behaves like a helo and a fixed wing airplane. No other country does this. We do not take guidance from those who are laps behind US.

At least those become public. The J-10 was falling out of the sky every other quarter some ten years ago.
More importantly, there are now some 800 f-35s delivered flying in conditions from alaska, to deserts to the ocean.
by comparison you have nothing comparable flying with the number of flight hours and definitely no lo vis stovl.
But as the true no knowledge jingoistic troll you are - all you do is copy paste

This was not an F-35 owned by the US military.

It was one of Lockheed Martin's F-35B's being tested.

F-35B crashes during vertical landing in Texas, pilot ejects

A US government aviator ejected from a Lockheed Martin-owned F-35B at ground level following a failed attempt at vertical landing.

www.flightglobal.com

A Lockheed Martin-owned F-35B short take-off and vertical landing (STOVL) fighter jet crashed during an apparent attempted vertical landing in Fort Worth, Texas on 15 December.

No doubt Lockheed Martin is trying to perfect this landing technique for the US and UK Governments...which seems to be pushing its aerodynamic limits.

U.K. F-35s Will Use Strange Rolling Carrier Landings

Royal Navy carrier jets will land differently than their American counterparts.

www.popularmechanics.com

The Royal Navy is currently testing a landing system that will allow its F-35B Joint Strike Fighters to fly farther and with greater payloads. The shipborne rolling vertical landing will allow F-35Bs to land on the U.K.’s new carriers with larger payloads

Not sharing the F-35s with the TurAF has invited a "divine" retribution! The USA needs to do the redemption ASAP....

 

[Yaoudelizard]

That’s going to cost 50 million to fix.
