What to Do if You See an F-35 Fighter Jet in Your Backyard
C/Net
It's not your typical social media plea. Joint Base Charleston, a US military base in South Carolina, posted on Facebook and X seeking the public's help to find a F-35B Lightning II jet that went missing Sunday. While the pilot was able to eject, the plane has not yet been found.
The post said that personnel from the base and from Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, also in South Carolina, are responding to the "mishap" involving the jet.
The jet belongs to Marine Fighter Attack Training Squadron 501, CNN reports. But the Air Force is assisting in the response because the F-35 went down near its base, The Washington Post reports.
