What happened to F35 of Japanese airforce?

I didn't make any claims.. I just raised a question for healthy discussion.
and going by your logic, if USA and Japan have kept it secret and played the cover up then do you think Russia will make public her search for an asset which does not belong to her? Just use brain before getting worked up.
I am not getting worked up here.

[1] You asked a simple question, and I am pointing out that there are no signs of Russian forces committing to this search in the suspect location - no noteworthy Russian airborne and maritime surveillance vessels spotted in the suspect location where the F-35 variant went down since the crash, or even near.

[2] Since Japanese and American airborne and maritime surveillance assets are active in the suspect location from day 1 of the incident, their searching activities are clearly known to the entire world accordingly.

[3] Some parts of the fallen F-35 have been found and recovered by the joint US-Japan surveillance task force, and it is possible that the main frame have also been found by now, but search will continue until recovery effort is declared satisfactory.

I hope you will understand what I am trying to tell you now.

The only proof, as you say, is the search but there's no proof they have found it..

Well said.
 
It went to Titan to fight Thanos along side with remaining Avengers , I am pretty sure Captain marvel needs one plane to fight until she turns binary .
 
UPDATE - First (insider) admission that US-Japan search teams have found the fallen F-35 jet and recovery efforts underway.

"NEW YORK -- A U.S. Air Force commander told reporters here Monday that the F-35A stealth fighter that crashed off the coast of Japan had been located, and that recovery efforts were underway.

"The aircraft's been located. ... It's now in the recovery aspect," said Charles Brown, four-star general and commander of the Pacific Air Forces, in a briefing for reporters in New York.

But later in the day, Colonel John Hutcheson, the director of public affairs at U.S. Forces Japan, contacted the Nikkei Asian Review and said "the aircraft has not been located at the bottom of the sea. The U.S. military is still working with the Japan Air Self-Defense Force to locate the wreckage."


Since the Japanese-built jet disappeared April 9, Japan time, the Japan Air Self-Defense Force and the U.S. military have poured resources into searching for its wreckage, which could expose sensitive American military technology secrets if retrieved by China or Russia.

The F-35, a fifth-generation fighter developed by American defense contractor Lockheed Martin, evades radar and is expected to play a crucial role in the defense strategies of the U.S. and its allies for decades to come. It "can track and destroy adversary cruise missiles today, and, in the future, can be equipped with a new or modified interceptor capable of shooting down adversary ballistic missiles in their boost phase," the U.S. Department of Defense said in its 2019 Missile Defense Review.

The Chinese and the Russians have been eager to acquire information on the tech behind the F-35. Wreckage from the crashed plane could give them access to study the radar-absorbing materials key to the aircraft's stealth features.

The U.S. is working very closely with the Japanese side in support of the recovery of the aircraft, Brown said."

The airplane was flown by a 41-year old very experienced pilot of Japanese airforce thus it cannot be blamed on the less experience or skills of the pilot since the best of the best are normally selected to fly the top A/C in the airforce.
Thunderbirds and Blue Angels pilots have erred -- disastrously. Are you sure this is not another circle jerk thread about the F-35?

:coffee:, hey the best excuse can be.. just say there was not enough fuel, the pilot flew with only 2 gallons of fuel and this will save your ***.

Yup...Another circle jerk thread about the F-35. :rolleyes:

Give up, already. The F-35 is settled. Pierre Sprey could not save you now.
 
Russian conspiracy right?
No. Ignorant PDF trolls.

Here is one of my favorite sources...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:United_States_fighter_aircraft_1950–1959

The 1950s decade was virtually an explosion of exploration into military aviation. As you move into the next decades, we produce less and less.

Is it because the designs got more expensive? Absolutely -- NOT.

If we examine the details of each design in the 1950s, we would see that each design is essentially a deployed exploration into a unique area of aviation.

For example...Take the F-104. It was appropriately nicknamed 'the manned missile'. Its designed was %90 focused on getting from point A to point B as fast as possible. Then we have the F-4, F-5, or the F-8, all consistent performers over a wide range of missions. Not even the Soviets came close to what we accomplished for military aviation, and I have praised Soviet aerodynamicists many times on this forum.

Where was your Pakistan in the 1950s for military aviation? But never mind that little historical detail. :lol:

The reason why each successive decade produced less and less fighter designs is because we learned and knew better. Each design is a 'jack-of-all-trades' that raised the bars of each trade in ways that no one, not even the Soviets, have matched in their fighters. Am sure the Russian fanbois disagrees but -- we give not a shit. Not even a dingleberry of a turd.

The F-35 is settled. Deal with it.

Nice deflection dude... you're really pro :enjoy:

No deflection. Am just pointing out the real intent of this thread which is your feeble attempt to make the F-35 look as bad as possible. You are making the proverbial mountain out of a molehill out of this event. We do not know the cause of this mishap, yet already you pounced.

Give it up. Pierre Sprey is no longer applicable to save you. All the yrs I have been on this forum, I kept telling people to wait but to no avail. And now you ended up with eggs on your faces. The F-35 is something the Russians and the Chinese wish they could make. A jerk-off is all that you have. :lol:
