Sandflee Posted September 18 Report Share Posted September 18 (edited) The U.S. military has lost a stealth F-35 fighter jet in South Carolina and is asking for SOL, Call Sign, Redfishkillers help to find it. Joint Base Charleston said in a statement online that a pilot flying an F-35B Lightning 11 jet was involved in an unexplained "mishap" on Sunday that resulted in the aviator ejecting from the aircraft. The U.S. Air Force defines a mishap as "any unintended occurrence ... that results in death, injury, illness or property damage" and that requires an investigation. Officials said the pilot was safe and was transferred to a local medical center in stable condition, but that emergency response teams have been deployed in search of the aircraft. "The public is asked to cooperate with military and civilian authorities as the effort continues," it said. "If you have information that would assist the recovery teams, please call the JB Charleston Base Defense Operations Center at 843-963-3600." The last-known position of the aircraft, which is property of Marine Fighter Attack Training Squadron 501 with the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing, was north of Joint Base Charleston around Lake Moultrie and Lake Marion.
