The mishap is the second to occur in the last week
unlimited mishaps on the first world 
Incredible that im seeing “mishap” being used multiple times throughout the article. What even is the point if you don’t tell people what it is lol
Hey did they ever find that F35 that kept flying on autopilot after the pilot ejected? I never heard anything else about that one
It's still flying as we speak, circling the globe while the empire's decaying army is trying to stop it, while the Benny Hill Theme plays in the background.
It landed on the roof of that one house with the mean old lady and her big dog, so we're gonna let her keep it
Fell through a wormhole and landed in building 7 during 9/11.
"We're proud to announce that our initiative to get the F-35 working with a median failure rate on par with our other aircraft has been a complete success!"
The mishap is the second to occur in the last week. On April 30, an F-16 Fighting Falcon assigned to the 49th Wing crashed outside of Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico.
On average, 3 1/2 F-22s have been involved in Class B incidents annually during the past decade
Class B incidents involved between $600,000 and $2.5 million in damages, a permanent partial disability, inpatient hospitalization of three or more personnel, or a combination of those factors.
On another note, putting the section explaining what a 'Class B incident' is BEFORE the piece stating that multiple aircraft have experienced a 'Class B incident' (so that it looks like it is being brought up unprompted) is just the sort of excellent editing I'd expect from 'Airforce Times'; it's also nice to know that 900 billion is going towards outstanding maintenance and safety systems.
Previous belly landings like this have taken as much as five years to repair, and necessitated cannibalizing other crashed airframes for parts to complete
This is the military America is always saber rattling about!
and necessitated cannibalizing other crashed airframes
Good thing so many of them crash then, lots of spare parts!
F-22 Raptor of Theseus
An F-22 belly landing would be a class A incident though surely, since it's more than $2 million worth of damages.
no doubt
critical support to the US Military for describing catastrophic fuck ups to the public the same way I explain catastrophic fuck ups to my boss
I'd like to imagine if it was the same pilot that caused both incidents but he got John McCain'd into the air force so he can't get fired.
Hung over failson pilot attempts to take off, pushes the stick forward instead of pulling it back, nose of the plane scrapes along the runway.
2 Johnnie 2 McCain: ok can I get a redo? I didn't know it was inverted controls.
Next day, it happens again
it's also nice to know that 900 billion is going towards outstanding maintenance and safety systems.
Does anyone have the article of how the US military wasn’t able to produce extra parts for some weaponry/combat vehicle to do repairs because they decided to get rid of the mold from their storage room? They sold it to a private buyer and had to track him down to repurchase it from him lol
god if Biden gets his world war it's gonna be so fucking funny. the look on all these ghouls faces when they realize the US armed forces ain't actually shit
then they'll panic and launch the nukes which will be less funny (but not zero funny, half of 'em will fail in the silos)
obviously it would suck for pretty much everyone but it's funny imagining the war popping off and the US having a bunch of looney tunes accidents like jets trying to take off from an aircraft carrier and dropping into the ocean or ICBMs launching straight up, doing a u-turn and then just obliterating the launch site, etc.
Anyone else feel some dread after reading the word Georgia in the title?
Yes
You've got Georgia on Your Mind, huh?
NAFO idiots now have to confront the Sophie's Choice of cope:
Ah, you forget the third option, which is to claim that China and Russia's planes are even worse and have even more frequent mishaps, they just "cover it up."
The ghost of John McCain approves this message.
