American Media: Le F-XX crashed

Absolute thump...........and then

Russian Propaganda: Le Zhukoy-57 izz betr zhan F-XX in reliability. Buy Zhu-57 tsu take on F-XX in "dogfights" (as if 5th-gen is made to crash in a dogfight). Zhe Muricans zpendh 350mil$ only tsu crazh zhem in zraining.

Chinese Propaganda: ...........hahahaha...........hahahaha...........now our military can use the le J-20 to eliminate Taiwan. Corona times, corona measures. [Atleast one F-XX loss makes a significant difference during war against our junk (grins aside)]

Le NATO: Russia is closer to our borders than ever before. Send in the le F-XX or we shall be annihilated. [typical smirk-faced randirona inside.]

Le Indian nibbas: Oh wow!!! They also fail?? Oh mah gawd!! Sed reacts only. Oh ma corona, they should try a cheaper alternative to F-XX as one crash costs 350mil$. Where's mah Sukhoi??? [Meanwhile, IAF Su-30, Mig-21 and Mig-29 falling down from the skies at an alarming rate. Still waiting for AMCA since 2 generations. Everybody crying inside.]

going by expensive crashes......I'll definitely say it's the Su30. You serious about mocking a F-22?? Go ahead, but be rest assured there doesn't exist any superior alternative to the remaining F-22 numbers as to this day, and this year also.

Around 185 exist today. Robert Gates is responsible for this mess.

An F-22 of #USAF crashed at Eglin Air Force Base . The pilot ejected and has been taken to the base hospital.
USAF f 35 crashed.
In the last 5 days, an F 35A and an F 22A crashed at Elgin AFB. Here are some of my observations :

1) There will be massive acceleration of the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program by Pentagon.

This program seeks to rapidly prototype a fighter using digital architecture and use existing or near future based technologies to produce it in 5 years.

The Air Force’s Digital Century Series push to rapidly churn out new aircraft now has its own program executive office (PEO), led by Col. Dale White.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/breaki...-next-gen-digital-planes-critics-grumble/amp/

The program head or PEO got promoted to be the PEO of all fighter programs. This provides a massive impetus to the NGAD program.

Brig. Gen. (select) Dale White, will now be the PEO for fighters and advanced aircraft.
https://www.airforcemag.com/air-for...ombers-more-focus-capture-mobility-synergies/

2) USN sensing this impetus for NGAD is pushing for it even at the cost of 36 new Super Hornets.

According to the justification in the documents, the money the Navy for planned a subsequent multiyear buy of 36 Super Hornets from FY 2022 to 2024 would be rerouted to “accelerated development of Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) and other key aviation wholeness investments,” read the documents.
https://news.usni.org/2020/02/10/na...production-to-develop-next-generation-fighter

So expect to see the NGAD program massively boosted after these two accidents at Elgin AFB, both involving stealth fighter jets.

A A320 fell off the sky in karachi today

Deeply saddened by the loss of life due to a plane crash in Pakistan. Our condolences to the families of the deceased, and wishing speedy recovery to those injured.

The aircraft mentioned in the aforementioned cases are presumably safe.

The F 35 only had a landing gear malfunction.

The C 130J has suffered structural damage.

Both are fairly easily recoverable.
Structural damage can turn into a hull loss pretty easily. Remember seeing a catering truck colliding with a stationary plane, damage wasn't even that significant, the plane got scrapped.

Nope. The aircraft looks fine. If it was a write off, USAF would have mentioned it.

Big aircraft are surprisingly durable.

Thats one Fine looking aircraft !😁

These are damaged A 10s that was eventually recovered.





This is a B 52 that got wrecked and was flying absolutely fine till the crew bailed out and was carrying nukes.



This is a B 17 that got wrecked and was able to land safely.



By that comparison, the C 130 is easily recoverable. Big aircraft can take surprising amounts of battle damage and still stay stay on level flight!
