That's interesting, the UK Navy lost one of their F35s in the Mediterranean a few months back. Maybe there is an issue with these aircraft that they need to resolve quickly?
- hindsightbias 5y agoBack in the day (idk about now), the CAG (Commander, Air Wing), wasn’t working them hard enough if a least one a/c wasn’t lost during a deployment. As F-35s roll out to the fleet more, expect more.

- bathyspheric 5y agoI think that plane was lost soon after takeoff because a raincover was left on an engine. Perhaps this incident was something related to landing heavily, unless the pilot made a very quick go-around. https://theaviationist.com/2021/11/24/f-35b-crash-cover-possible-cause/ https://theaviationist.com/2021/11/24/f-35b-crash-cover-poss...
