russians hacked the onboard computer and installed the latest boeing software on it causing it to nosedive

China hacked those Boeings, and the GE engines.

The Xai have come. We must migrate to the forests.
Cooper Garcia
Cool, all those billions you threw away at research only to have that thing reverse engineered by chinks. Good job america.
Jose Ward
Nip handed it to the chinks. 2years later, we'll see the chink carbon copy.

They literally let hordes of them into our top universities to steal our tech. The Chinese will always know our shit so long as liberals and "intellectual" faggots exist.
The F-35A conventional takeoff and landing (CTOL) variant is designed to operate from conventional runways, and is the only version to carry an internal cannon. The F-35A will be the most prevalent variant of the F-35. The U.S. Air Force as well as the majority of our allied air forces and Foreign Military Sales (FMS) nations will operate the F-35A, replacing their 3rd and 4th generation aircraft.

EW. I am not surprised they swatted that ugly shit out of the air!

I came here to post this.

The F-35 was created so that the defence contractors could make big bucks.
It's useless and the real fighter is the F-22.

Cunningly added a second engine

>Single engine More likely just crashed than got shot down by China
Juan Cooper
must have had so much useless space from all the technology the chinks couldn't replicate they just slapped another engine in it.
Ayden Edwards
a single engine is going to be better maintained than twin engines ultimately giving the aircraft better reliability than a twin engine system under wartime conditions.
I don't expect you to believe or understand the military leadership on the matter though.
John Turner
And quadruple losses during peacetime.
Juan Watson
This. They're gonna give him several million and a new identity. The amount of money saved doing research more than makes up for it. Orrrrr they'll give him a bullet and a burial at sea and save even those millions. That's what you'd get for trusting chinks to live up their end of the bargain on anything.

In completely unrelated news, there was a training accident in pearl harbor that damaged a battleship
