Mysterious Disappearance and Crash of F-35 Fighter Jet Revealed

The Marine Corps is investigating a "mishap" involving an F-35 fighter jet that crashed in South Carolina after a malfunction, prompting the pilot to eject. In a perplexing 911 call, the pilot, who landed safely in a residential backyard, repeatedly requested an ambulance while expressing uncertainty about the whereabouts of the jet. The fighter jet continued flying for 60 miles before crashing in a rural area. The Marine Corps suggested that flight control software may have kept the jet steady after the ejection. Questions remain about why the plane wasn't tracked and why it took over a day to locate the wreckage. The incident is under investigation, and results from an official review board are expected in the coming months.
